(Niagara Falls, ON) September 12, 2024 – Buzzing with excitement, Fallsview Casino Resort is thrilled to welcome none other than 4-time GRAMMY® Award-winning writer, producer, multi-instrumentalist and all around multi-hyphenate icon, Lenny Kravitz to the OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino for the Blue Electric Light Tour 2024 on October 30. The showtime is 8:00pm. Tickets go on sale Wednesday September 18, through ticketmaster.ca.
“Lenny Kravitz is an absolute music legend and a genuine artist,” says Cathy Price, Vice President of Marketing, Niagara Casinos. “He exudes endless energy, has incredible style, and his voice remains as unique as he is.”
Lenny Kravitz is regarded as one of the preeminent rock musicians of our time. Over a career spanning more than three decades, he has transcended genre and style. Influenced by the soul, rock, and funk music of the sixties and seventies, Kravitz is not only a talented writer and producer but also a multi-instrumentalist. He has won four consecutive Grammy® Awards and holds the record for the most wins in the “Best Male Rock Vocal Performance” category.
Kravitz’s hit songs include “It Ain’t Over ‘Til It’s Over,” “Are You Gonna Go My Way,” and “Fly Away.” His latest work, “Paralyzed,” appears on his recent album, Blue Electric Light, released earlier this year.
The show will bring Kravitz’s Blue Electric Light Tour 2024 to Canada for the first time in support of his 12th studio album Blue Electric Light. The Blue Electric Light Tour 2024 caps off a landmark year for Lenny Kravitz, which Billboard dubbed the “Lennaissance.” In May, Kravitz released Blue Electric Light to widespread critical acclaim. The Associated Press described the project as “glorious… the rocker’s best stuff in years,” while NPR called it a “kaleidoscope of soaring rock, psychedelic funk, gentle soul and more.” Also this year, Kravitz was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the “Music Icon Award” at the 2024 People’s Choice Awards and the CFDA’s “Fashion Icon Award” for his role as not only one of rock’s most esteemed musicians but also a major fashion influence. This summer, Kravitz headlined the UEFA Champions League Final Kick Off Show at Wembley Stadium in London, before kicking off his expansive worldwide tour in Hamburg, Germany.
“We are thrilled to welcome the incomparable Lenny Kravitz to the OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino. This will be one of those performances to remember and say ‘you were there’.” says Price.
