Bruce Hornsby's work reflects a creative iconoclasm that's been a constant throughout his career. Despite his early successes with hits like "The Way It Is" and "Mandolin Rain," Hornsby has pursued a more personal musical path, focusing on projects that spark his creative interest. Hornsby's performance will offer a glimpse of a restless spirit who continues to push forward into exciting new musical terrain.

The genre-defying Mavericks perform exhilarating, beyond-category style music that has defined them since the 1990s. Their taut, energetic, economical songs, be it a classic like "Dance the Night Away," or music from their new release Brand New Day, are embraced by longtime fans and a new generation of followers who have joined the party since the band's triumphant 2012 reunion.

Yanni - featuring his full band - returns to MPAC in a celebration of the 25th anniversary of his famous concert at the Acropolis.

Grammy-winning music legend Brian Wilson performs the iconic Beach Boys album Pet Sounds in its entirety, as well as top hits and fan favorites spanning his amazing career. Special guests will be former Beach Boys Al Jardine and Blondie Wilson.

One of the seminal figures of the British New Wave era, Adam Ant ("Goody Two Shows," "Strip," "Dog Eat Dog," "Antmusic") performs an evening of hits, B-sides, rarities and more.

Human Nature, Australia's top selling pop vocal group and Las Vegas headliners, effortlessly blends retro cool with contemporary sounds to bring you the ultimate Jukebox party. Mixing pop classics with Doo-Wop, Motown, soul standards and more, Jukebox is a playlist of the greatest vocal hits of all time. Anticipate everything from "Under the Boardwalk" to "Uptown Funk."
