Big Concerts confirmed that
OneRepublic will be coming
to South Africa touring in support of their latest smash hit album, Native.
They will be performing in Johannesburg on the 19th June 2015 at The Dome and
Cape Town on 21st June 2015 at the Grand Arena, GrandWest. Presented by 947 and
M-Net. Another Big Concerts Experience. OneRepublic have achieved huge
international success throughout their career. Their first album ‘Dreaming Out
Loud’ (2007) was certified as platinum earning them a Grammy nomination and
went straight to number 1 in 16 countries. Their first single ‘Apologize’
remixed by Timbaland ranks in the top 50 on the Billboard Hot 100’s All-Time
Top Songs list and became a worldwide smash hit and their second single ‘Stop
and Stare’ followed with the same success. Their second album ‘Waking Up’
(2009) spawned hit singles
‘All The
Right Moves’ and ‘Good Life’. In creating their third full-length album
‘Native’ (2013), OneRepublic travelled to Paris, Greece, London, New York,
Seattle, and Vancouver to write and record describing it as a ‘bold and
boundary-pushing follow-up to 2009’s Waking Up, offering up a surge of
stadium-sized rock that’s fiercely beat-driven yet ethereal and intimate’.
‘Native’ debuted at number 4 on the Billboard 200 and their hit single
‘Counting Stars’ reached number 2 on the Billboard Top 100, their highest
charting single since ‘Apologize’, as well as the top 10 of the Kia Top 40 on
947. OneRepublic’s Native Tour is their largest to date playing over 185 sold
out dates around the world and South African fans are encouraged to get their
tickets early to avoid disappointment. Tickets go on sale Friday the 28th of
November at 9am. Go to www.bigconcerts.com for all the information.
