Madonna's Rebel Heart Tour Confirms Kaytranada Will Open Tonight's Show at Joe Louis Arena

Madonna today announced that Haitian-Canadian electronic musician, producer & DJ Kaytranada will open the Rebel Heart Tour date at Joe Louis Arena on Thursday, October 1 at 8 p.m.

The Rebel Heart Tour kicked off in Montreal on September 9th and has been selling out shows along the way including three SOLD OUT shows in NYC alone which included Madonna's 25 consecutive sell out at Madison Square Garden. The press has been raving about the performances including: PITCHFORK: "It's nice to be reminded how refreshing it is to simply love something because it makes you feel alive." ROLLING STONE: "Madonna spent three hours in New York proving what a goddess she is." THE WASHINGTON POST: "Madonna doesn't miss a beat." NY DAILY NEWS: "An infectious night that brought the Canadian crowd to a series of spontaneous, and escalating, standing ovations." NEW YORK TIMES: "Unstoppable." COURIER POST: "Madonna is seriously one of the most important pop figures of ever." NEW YORK POST: Madonna (as she always has done since she first played the Garden 30 years ago) put on a show that was entertaining to the last."

The "Rebel Heart" Tour follows the spring release of Madonna's Rebel Heart album on Interscope Records. Rave reviews of the album include: ROLLING STONE: "Rebel Heart is a long, passionate, self-referential meditation on losing love and finding purpose in chilling times." LA TIMES: "Rebel Heart like its creator pushes through the pain and more often than not lands solidly and with great grace on its feet." NOISEY: "Madonna continues to keep us on our toes, like no other performer in the history of modern music." NY DAILY NEWS "Rebel Heart's best moments boast some of the most finely structured pop melodies of Madonna's 32-year career."

Along with extraordinary critical acclaim as an artist, songwriter and producer who has sold a record breaking 300 million records, Madonna's reputation as one of the most successful, provocative and enduring live performers of all time speaks for itself. The 2008/2009 Sticky & Sweet tour is the highest grossing tour of all time for a solo artist and the 2012 MDNA tour was the most successful tour of that year. Madonna's Rebel Heart Tour is produced by Live Nation Global Touring.
