Park City Institute presents singer, songwriter and producer-Aloe Blacc, for an unforgettable evening on the 2017 St. Regis Big Stars, Bright Nights stage, at Deer Valley Resort Outdoor Amphitheater. "If you saw him two years ago, you know why he's so hot right now," says Teri Orr, Park City Institute Executive Director. "The audience loves him-he had such a great time here, that he asked to come back. You won't want to miss this one."
Grammy-nominated Blacc released his major-label debut album Lift Your Spirit in 2014 on XIX Recordings/Interscope Records where it debuted at #4 on the Billboard Top 200 chart. The set followed up Blacc's collaboration as vocalist and co-writer on well-known DJ/producer Avicii's track "Wake Me Up," a song that hit the Top 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #1 on its Hot Dance Club Songs and Dance/Electronic Songs charts, as well as topping charts in more than 100 countries. Blacc's single "The Man" topped the charts with more than 2.7 million singles sold and Lift Your Spirit received a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Album at the 57th Grammy Awards. In 2016 Blacc penned and performed "Let The Games Begin (From RACE)," a song which was featured in both the film and soundtrack for the Focus Features movie RACE. 2016 also saw Blacc collaborate with Zedd on "Candyman" - a modern reinterpretation of Sammy Davis Jr.'s 1972 classic "The Candy Man."
The Grammy-nominee's hits, including, "I Need a Dollar," "Wake Me Up," "The Man," and "Love is the Answer," reflect his quest for social justice. Blacc's innovation extends to his performances.
Aloe Blacc's show-much like his personality-is equal parts fun, engaging and uplifting.
