Human Nature Comes to the Fox Theatre, 4/10

HUMAN NATURE, Australia's #1 pop vocal group with millions of albums sold worldwide, is presenting its first-ever U.S. National tour. The tour will stop at the Fabulous Fox Theatre for one night only on April 10 at 7:30 p.m.  Tickets are on sale now through MetroTix and are $56 & $32. All prices are subject to change. Presented by the Nine Network. 

The chart-topping quartet and their seven-piece band, The Funk Foundation, is embarking on a U.S. tour this spring. "Human Nature: The Motown Show presented by Smokey Robinson" kicks off March 24 in Detroit and will travel to 33 U.S. cities. This outstanding evening of hit-driven entertainment features Motown's greatest music, inspiring audiences young and old to be "dancing in the streets" and the aisles.  

This cross-country tour follows the incredible success of the TV special, "Human Nature Sings Motown with Special Guest Smokey Robinson," which premiered in December 2011 on PBS stations nationwide.

The new Human Nature album, The Motown Record, is a classic yet modern take on the Motown hits that influenced generations, featuring songs originally made famous by artists like The Four Tops, The Supremes, The Temptations and Stevie Wonder.  Human Nature brings their fresh soulful vocal style to classics like  "Baby I Need Your Loving," "My Girl," "Uptight (Everything's Alright)," and "Stop! In The Name Of Love." Paying tribute to the Motown sound, Human Nature's distinctive and authentic performances of these ever-popular favorites represent everything audiences love about the songs, delivered by four supremely talented young men who sing and dance their way through the Motown hit list. 

Hailing from Sydney, Human Nature features brothers Andrew and Mike Tierney and fellow high-school classmates Phil Burton and Toby Allen. While still in school, they were captivated by the harmonies of soul, gospel and R&B.   

Since forming Human Nature, these four friends have forged one of the most successful careers in Australian music history, releasing nine albums, five of which went to No. 1. They have toured internationally, and opened for Celine Dion and Michael Jackson in Europe and Australia.  

Human Nature opened the Summer Olympic Games in Sydney in 2000 and their 2005 Motown tribute, "Reach Out," went platinum five times over, attracting the attention of Smokey Robinson. The legendary singer recorded "Get Ready" with Human Nature and now presents their celebration of the Motown sound in an exclusive run at Las Vegas' Imperial Palace, where they consistently have played to sold-out crowds for more than two years. Their PBS special, a telecast of the group's impressive show produced by longtime Grammy Awards and multi-Emmy Award winning producer Ken Ehrlich, features the group singing their spectacular interpretations of Motown hits, dancing and sharing stories that delight and entertain audiences.
