Sting is set to perform on November 10 as part of his STING 3.0 Tour, which focuses on a stripped-down sound. The former lead singer of The Police will take the stage with guitarist Dominic Miller and drummer Chris Maas in a trio format. Many of his North American shows have already sold out, and critics have praised his performances.
Sting is a Rock and Roll Hall of Famer known for his work as a solo artist and as the main songwriter for The Police. He has won 17 GRAMMY Awards and sold over 100 million albums worldwide. His accolades also include four BRIT Awards, an Emmy, a Golden Globe, and four Oscar nominations for Best Original Song. This tour offers a fresh take on his entire back catalog, reimagined with a three-piece band. It has inspired his new song, “I Wrote Your Name (Upon My Heart),” which was mixed by the four-time GRAMMY winner and released by Cherrytree Music Company/Interscope Records.
In addition to Sting, the Tampa Bay area will host several other acts in November. Lainey Wilson will perform her Whirlwind World Tour at Benchmark International Arena on November 7, featuring hits like “Things a Man Oughta Know” and “Heart Like a Truck.” Bryan Adams will bring his Roll with the Punches Tour to the same venue on November 10, with Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo as special guests. Comedian Nate Bargatze will perform there on November 13 and 14, hosting a competition with three contestants.
Jazz fans can enjoy the Dirty Dozen Brass Band and the Suncoast Jazz Festival from November 21 to 24.
Sting will also release The Last Ship (Expanded Edition) on December 5, featuring five new recordings. The album will be available in digital and physical formats, including CD and 2-disc vinyl.
