American Tours Festival 2018 with Deep Purple and Imelda May
Julian Elliott
The American Tours Festival in the city of Tours is held over three days during the month of July. If you like good music, rodeo and all things American then you’re likely to be in 7th heaven.
Each year there is a headline music act at the end of the day from a big-name artist. This year saw Lenny Kravitz on Friday. Deep Purple on the Saturday and Imelda May on Sunday. Honestly, I’d never come across Imelda’s music but after witnessing her up close all I can say is definitely give her a listen. She sings beautifully and it’s a treat to hear a “singer” rather than shout at their audience.
As an accredited photographer for the main festival, I had to apply separately for each of the three music artists and their support. I lucked out on Lenny Kravitz but was over the moon to be chosen to photograph Deep Purple. Imelda May was a last minute decision but I’m glad I asked as she was, as I said earlier, superb and well worth seeing.
So do you get to see the whole concert as a photographer? Nope. Normally you get at most 3 songs and then you’re marched off away from the venue towards the press office. That’s fine as getting up close and personal with some of these amazing artists is a blast as you get to capture them from behind the lens.

American tours 2018 : roots, rock & kustom kulture .
Le soleil était de la partie, comme l’an dernier, pour la 12e édition de ce rendez-vous incontournable célébrant la culture US
Un week-end pas comme les autres ! Entre chromes, grosses cylindrées et rock vrombissant, le rock s’est frayé une place de choix à Tours en ce deuxième week-end de juillet. Mais aussi… le foot ! Car cette fin de semaine était surtout marquée par la victoire de l’équipe de France lors de la Coupe du Monde en Russie ! Aussi la finale a été diffusée sur les écrans géants bordant la grande scène, là même où la veille, Deep Purple mettait le feu aux 40 000 personnes venus les voir. La bonne humeur et le bon esprit a donc veillé sur cette 12e édition de l’American Tours Festival, malgré la petite entorse footballistique…
Comme chaque année depuis 2007, tous les amoureux de la culture US se donnent rendez-vous en Indre-et-Loire pour faire revivre un monde pas si disparu que cela, car l’humour dominait plus que la nostalgie et les clichés de l’American Way of Life. Certes, on aime à y venir vêtu en cowboy, en GI ou en rocker 50’s, mais on y vient aussi et surtout pour la musique, le rock bien sûr, mais aussi la country, le blues, bref, une programmation riche et variée, à écouter en dégustant des travers grillés et autres ailes de poulet marinées et frites…

Dans les halls, les stands par centaines proposaient leurs fringues vintage : boots bien sûr, mais aussi accessoires motos faits mains. À l’extérieur, on retrouve camions et voitures millésimées – avec leurs pendants à deux roues, les Harley Davidson – et même chevaux et tractors pulling ! C’est dire ! Et surtout, le parking moto : ou plutôt, les 4 parkings motos où l’on a pu voir des milliers de Harley Davidson, principalement, montrant par là même la vivacité de la culture custom ! Car c’est par dizaines de milliers que les festivaliers ont déboulé de toute l’Europe, souvent à moto.
Côté spectacle, tout le monde en a eu pour ses yeux et ses oreilles : des dizaines de petits groupes couvrant toutes les facettes de la country et du rockabilly, des shows d’Indiens, du rodeo et même des démonstration de dressage ou de capture de veaux au lasso. Et, enfin, le soir venu, les grands concerts.
Dès le premier jour, Lenny Kravitz est venu mettre la barre très haute avec un set sans temps mort, une énergie à revendre et une setlist orientée vers ses plus grands tubes. Et l’on retiendra facilement le grand final avec Let Love Rule et Are You Gonna Go My Way , explosif ! Le lendemain, Deep Purple est venu rappeler au public quelle machine à riffs et à son le groupe a toujours été ! S’ils n’ont plus l’énergie qui les caractérisaient il y déjà 40 ans au moment de leur apogée, force est de constater qu’ils en ont encore un peu sous le pied, et leurs titres restent encore d’une efficacité redoutable. La ferveur du public a souligné ce show énorme, avec autant de titres cultes. Mention spéciale toutefois à Gord Bamson , countryman canadien de Toronto et superstar en son pays, qui a tenu un public en haleine et principalement venu pour les rockers britanniques, avec une setlist démentielle dont une reprise de Johnny Cash, et dont le backing band était plus qu’au top niveau.
Pour clôturer en beauté cet American tour, un autre symbole de la culture US à la sauce européenne, l’envoûtante Imelda May, attendu par des milliers de fans habillés en grande tenue vintage et coupe de rigueur. Ses titres rayonnants au coucher du soleil valaient à eux seuls le déplacement !

L’événement rendra hommage à l’œuvre du regretté Claude Nougaro , avec une création originale baptisée « New’Garo ». Est ainsi formé un groupe unique avec le Paris Jazz Big Band de Nicolas Folmer et Pierre Bertrand.
Dans une volonté de mettre en avant « la richesse du jazz européen », le festival met en place un gros plan sur la Suisse. Ainsi, sept formations de jazz suisse proposées sur toutes les scènes. Il s’agit de Louis Matute, Léon Phal, Elvett, Louise Knobil, Manon Mullener, Ydivide et Fabien Sevilla .

Wolfmother annonce deux dates françaises
Rendez-vous les 3 juillet à L’Atabal (Biarritz) et le 4 au Bikini (Toulouse) pour voir ou revoir le groupe australien Wolfmother !
Après un concert qui a enflammé le Trianon à Paris en 2023, Wolfmother est de retour en France pour 2 dates exceptionnelles cet été ! Andrew Stockdale et sa bande vous donnent donc rendez-vous le 3 juillet à L’Atabal (Biarritz) et le 4 juillet au Bikini (Toulouse). The Picturebooks seront présents pour assurer la première partie. Les places seront disponibles dès ce vendredi 12 avril à 10h via le site de l’organisateur .
En plus d’interpréter les éternels classiques tels que « Woman » ou « Joker & The Thief », Andrew Stockdale et ses acolytes Hamish Rosser et Bobby Poulton présenteront des titres de Rock Out . Il s’agit de leur dernier album en date, paru en 2021. Créé en pleine pandémie, ce disque représente un véritable voyage cathartique pour le guitariste et chanteur. En effet, ce travail lui a permis de traverser cette période si particulière. Si les circonstances de la gestation de ce disque étaient exceptionnelles, l’identité sonore des Australiens subsiste. L’impitoyable riff du morceau-titre permet de constater que Wolfmother n’a rien perdu de sa verve et de son énergie.
Depuis, le groupe de hard rock australien s’est fendu d’un nouveau single intitulé « Stay A Little Longer ». Le clip est disponible via le player ci-dessous :
Un déluge d’énergie à retrouver donc au mois de juillet lors de ces deux dates exceptionnelles ! De quoi satisfaire les fans qui n’ont pas pu les voir à Paris et au Motocultor en 2023.
Festival International de Jazz de Montréal 2024 : la programmation
Découvrez l’ensemble des groupes et artistes présents du 27 juin au 6 juillet, au Festival International de Jazz de Montréal.

La billetterie est ouverte
Des têtes d’affiche incontournables vous y attendent ! Qu’il s’agisse de la chanteuse jazz incontournable Norah Jones , du bassiste et trompettiste Marcus Miller , de l’ex-Outkast Andre 3000 , du groupe aux mille visages Pink Martini , sans oublier le rappeur Killer Mike .

« Comme dans d’autres sphères de la société, la notion de frontière tend à disparaître et il en va de même pour notre jazz bien-aimé. Notre incroyable équipe de programmation a le devoir et le plaisir de refléter cette saine évolution » explique Maurin Auxéméry, qui en est à sa deuxième édition à la tête de la programmation du FIJM. « Le jazz se nourrit constamment des autres styles de musique actuels et il s’immisce à son tour dans le rock, la pop et le hip-hop, pour ne nommer que ceux-là. Cette interdépendance m’emballe au plus haut point, car elle témoigne de la pertinence du jazz dans notre paysage musical. »
Rolling Stone avait interviewé Maurin Auxéméry lors de l’édition 2022 du Festival International de Jazz de Montréal.
Fondé en 1979, cet événement est reconnu « plus grand festival de jazz de la planète » par le livre Guinness des records. Ce record a été établi en 2004. Cette année-là, l’événement a accueilli en son sein plus de deux millions de visiteurs. Il s’agit là d’un rendez-vous immanquable pour les passionnés de jazz du monde entier, ainsi que pour les curieux et les amateurs de musiques actuelles.
Situé au cœur du centre-ville de Montréal, le site du de l’événement devient le rendez-vous des amateurs de jazz du monde entier pendant 10 jours. Il s’agit ainsi de profiter de près de 150 concerts en salle et du célèbre volet extérieur composé de plus de 350 spectacles gratuits, présentés entre autres sur une Place des Festivals spécialement repensée et aménagée pour l’événement.

With JAY-Z and Beyoncé , Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift playing the country’s largest venues in the months to come, 2018 is shaping up to be a strong year for stadium shows — particularly during the summer, a crucial season for the live-music business. Using last year’s Billboard Boxscore results as a yardstick, concert promoters and bookers are looking at a potential 10-figure market, just for the warm-weather months. In 2017, concerts held in North American stadiums between Memorial Day and Labor Day grossed $421 million in ticket sales, while all North American concerts during that same period generated a total gross of $1.8 billion, which is about an 8 percent increase over the same period in 2016.
The slight rise can be attributed to mainstream acts including Lady Gaga , Metallica and Justin Bieber that toured in 2017. Ticket sales during the last summer season also accounted for around 42 percent of the overall North American gross of $4.3 billion for the entire chart year, according to Boxscore. With summer approaching, Billboard editors chose these 18 tours as the season’s most anticipated, based on expected box-office grosses and media buzz, which span pop, rock, country, hip-hop and Latin bills on the road this summer.

KENNY CHESNEY Trip Around The Sun Tour Booked by: Messina Touring Group
Chesney is counting on his No Shoes Nation fan army to be loud, proud and eager to buy tickets for his 40-date tour of stadiums and amphitheaters, which will culminate with back-to-back shows at Gillette Stadium outside of Boston (Aug. 24-25). “We’re killing it,” says promoter Louis Messina, adding that stadium ticket sales for the tour are “ahead of any year” that Chesney has been playing them. As he always does prior to a tour, Chesney completed two warm-up shows in March at The Joint at the Hard Rock in Las Vegas. The country superstar begins rehearsals with his stage setup in early April, which comes after the announcement that he signed with Warner Music Nashville, leaving his longtime home of Sony Music Nashville.
DAVE MATTHEWS BAND Booked by: Paradigm -Talent Agency
This is what democracy looks like — on a rock tour. Dave Matthews Band , which has announced 40-plus U.S. dates this summer and the release of a currently untitled new album, will host volunteers at its shows from the nonpartisan voter-registration group HeadCount as it has done on each of its tours since 2004. Matthews has backed the organization’s work with public service announcements, social media posts and support from his Bama Works foundation. “We’ve registered more voters at DMB shows than any other band by a fairly wide margin,” says Andy Bernstein, executive director of HeadCount, which has ramped up its voter registration efforts in the wake of the Parkland, Fla., shooting.
DEAD & COMPANY Booked by: WME
“Summer touring is a big part of the [Grateful] Dead legacy, and [Dead & Company] has risen to the occasion musically,” says promoter Peter Shapiro, whose LOCKN’ festival will serve as terminus of Dead & Company’s third annual summer run. Instead of a greatest-jams show, core members Bob Weir , Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmann will continue to improvise and expand their repertoire with guitarist John Mayer .
EMINEM Revival Tour Booked by: Cara Lewis Group
Eminem ’s sweep of festival-headlining gigs comes four years after his last string of North American shows, and will see him at Coachella (for the first time), Boston Calling, Bonnaroo and Firefly. At 45, his continued relevance — last year, Revival became his eighth album to top the Billboard 200 , and he recently became the second artist ever to have three singles be certified diamond — and his sharp critiques of President Donald Trump and the National Rifle Association have not slowed his momentum in red states. “The anticipation for Eminem is far greater than for any other artist, not only because of his extraordinary performance and catalog, but also because of how rarely he tours and performs,” says Cara Lewis, noting that when the rapper plays Boston Calling on May 27, it will be his first Beantown performance in 14 years.
G-EAZY The Endless Summer Tour Booked by: United Talent Agency
Less than 24 hours after wrapping up The Beautiful & Damned Tour at New York’s Radio City Music Hall in March, G-Eazy made a surprise announcement to his fans: He was going out on the road once more. The second edition of The Endless Summer Tour — the first rolled in 2016 — will begin July 20 in Seattle. Also along for the 32-city road trip: Lil Uzi Vert , Ty Dolla $ign , YBN Nahmir, Murda Beatz and P-Lo . “This is the second Endless Summer Tour, and I’m hella excited about the lineup,” says G-Eazy. “It’s going to be an eclectic experience for the fans. It’s going to feel like a traveling festival all summer.”

HAIM Sister Sister Sister Tour Booked by: Creative Artists Agency
For its second headlining tour behind sophomore album Something to Tell You, HAIM booked U.S. venues that double the capacity of its first tour in 2014. In New York, for instance, the trio of sisters have graduated from a single show at Terminal 5, with a capacity of around 3,000, to two nights at Radio City Music Hall, which seats just over 6,000. “We envisioned this tour to be a celebration of girl power, which is why we named it the Sister Sister Sister Tour,” the siblings said in a statement. “With our special guest Lizzo in tow [as the opener], we can promise you that your face will be melted by the end of the night.”
JAY-Z AND BEYONCÉ On the Run II Tour Booked by: Creative Artists Agency, Live Nation
Ticketmaster can’t keep a secret. News of the superstar tour leaked twice before the official announcement in March for the 45-date megatour. Knowing that On the Run II will be among the highest-grossing tours of 2018 with top-shelf ticket prices (the Runway VIP Experience Package runs $1,995 at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium), many are emptying their wallets for the pair. Comedian Travon Free from HBO’s Him or Her joked on Twitter that fans trying to come up with ways to pay for tickets are going to need to ask themselves, “Do I really need two lungs and [a] heart?”
KENDRICK LAMAR, SZA AND MORE The Championship Tour Booked by: WME
In 2017, Top Dawg Entertainment reigned supreme after Kendrick Lamar and SZA ’s masterful albums DAMN. and Ctrl , respectively, garnered critical acclaim and a combined 12 Grammy nominations. In May, the “All the Stars” duo alongside ScHoolboy Q , Jay Rock and the rest of their TDE cohort will team up for Top Dawg’s first full-label tour. “We’ve been building our roster for years to showcase the TDE standard of quality; to give the fans an experience like no other: Championship!” says label president Dave Free.
BRUNO MARS WITH SPECIAL GUEST CARDI B 24K Magic Tour Booked by: WME
After sweeping the Grammy Awards in February, Bruno Mars is heading back onto the road for his 24K Magic Tour with a Memorial Day weekend show at Bottlerock Napa Valley in Napa, Calif.; a swing through Europe; then Lollapalooza in Chicago in August and a full North American run with “Finesse” remix collaborator Cardi B as a special guest. Mars’ tour — which has already grossed $200 million, according to Boxscore — will find the superstar performing multiple dates in a number of cities, including a four-night stand at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

PEARL JAM The Home Shows/The Away Shows Booked by: WME
On the heels of the 2017 concert film/album Let’s Play Two , documenting its 2016 dates at Chicago’s Wrigley Field, Pearl Jam is again hitting ballparks. First up, The Home Shows at Seattle’s Safeco Field on Aug. 8 and 10. The “away” dates follow at Washington-Grizzly Stadium in Missoula, Mont.; Wrigley Field; and Fenway Park in Boston. Wrigley restoration and expansion vp Carl Rice says that Pearl Jam is among a very exclusive group of acts that can play “doubles” (two shows) at the famed ballpark, which seats over 41,000. “This is a special relationship [in part] because of Eddie Vedder ’s love for Wrigley Field,” says Rice. “He has been a Cubs fan for his entire life.”
SHAKIRA El Dorado World Tour Booked by: Live Nation
El Dorado, named after Shakira ’s chart-topping 2017 album, kicks off June 3 at the Barclaycard Arena in Hamburg, her first tour in seven years following the birth of her two sons and a vocal-cord injury that forced her to postpone the original kickoff slated for last fall. In an online missive to fans, the Colombian star promised her “best” show yet. “Shakira has been a force in the music industry for decades with a loyal and diverse fan base,” says Live Nation senior vp North American touring Omar Al-joulani. “We’ve really focused on marketing the El Dorado World Tour to a Spanish-speaking audience, an effective strategy that has sold over 170,000 tickets across her North American dates thus far.”
ED SHEERAN Booked by: Paradigm Talent Agency
The “Perfect” singer will embark on his first all-stadium tour at the end of the summer. Performances will begin Sept. 18 at the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles and continue through the fall with Southeastern shows at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla. (Nov. 7) and Atlanta’s new Mercedes-Benz Stadium (Nov. 10). While promoter Louis Messina prefers football stadiums over baseball parks, he’s opting for AT&T Park in San Francisco over the larger Levi’s Stadium in nearby Santa Clara, Calif. “The curfew is just too early on weeknights,” says Messina of Santa Clara’s 10 p.m. cutoff. “They’re going to kill their concert business if they don’t go later.”

CHRIS STAPLETON All-American Road Show Booked by: WME
Compared with last year, Stapleton will play fewer 2018 dates as he and wife Morgane await the birth of twins. “His tour isn’t getting started until May,” says his WME agent, Jay Williams, who adds that his run will include “arenas, amphitheaters and a few other special events” with top touring acts. “Last year it was [opening for Tom] Petty , and this year it’s the Eagles ,” says Williams, “as well as several multigenre festivals, including Forecastle and Innings.” Despite the dip in dates, sales are up following Stapleton’s Saturday Night Live and Grammy performances as well as his continued collaboration with Justin Timberlake . Stapleton also made history when he became the first artist in over 25 years to hold Nos. 1-3 on the Top Country Albums chart.
HARRY STYLES Harry Styles Live on Tour Booked by: Creative Artists Agency
After proving he can work a stage on his own during a run of small theaters last fall, Styles is adapting his show to arenas around the globe. Adding two previously unreleased tracks to his set — the rocking “Anna” and “Medicine,” which fans have interpreted as a nod to bisexuality — Styles will be joined by Kacey Musgraves , Warpaint , Leon Bridges , The Preatures and Mabel in select cities. Since the tour’s start on March 11, he has already teased fans on Instagram with shots from his performances and a handwritten note that reads, “I can’t wait to see you…”
TAYLOR SWIFT Reputation Tour Booked by: Messina Touring Group
Don’t believe the haters. Despite rumors about slow ticket sales, Taylor Swift ’s Reputation Tour is shaping up to be a $300 million stadium outing, according to promoter Louis Messina. “We’re selling more tickets than we’ve ever sold,” says Messina. “The production is going to be off the hook — the renderings I’ve seen keep getting bigger and bigger.” Camila Cabello and Charli XCX have been tapped as Swift’s opening acts, after Vance Joy and Shawn Mendes joined her 1989 Tour. The tour opens May 8 at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Ariz.
JAMES TAYLOR WITH SPECIAL GUEST BONNIE RAITT Booked by: Creative Artists Agency
After playing to sold-out audiences on a 17-date run last summer, friends and living legends James Taylor and Bonnie Raitt are back for a repeat performance. “We’re a good 30 percent ahead of where we were last time,” says Taylor’s manager, Sam Feldman, of ticket sales for the upcoming arena road trip. It will begin May 8 in Jacksonville, Fla., and covers 30-plus markets between the United States and Europe, where the pair will join fellow legend Paul Simon ’s farewell tour for two shows in Dublin and London.
SHANIA TWAIN NOW Tour Booked by: Creative Artists Agency
Three years after what was billed as her “farewell tour,” Twain has returned to the road behind her 2017 comeback record, Now , which topped the Billboard 200 following its Sept. 29 release. “We’ve been working on the visuals, stage production and props, and let me just say, it’s going to be a lot of fun,” said Twain in a tour promo video. If her high-energy, firework-filled Grey Cup halftime show last November was any indication, fans will get their money’s worth.
JACK WHITE Booked by: WME
After a two-year break from touring, White is back, beginning April 19 in Detroit. He will perform at arenas, amphitheaters and festivals, including Arroyo Seco Weekend in Pasadena, Calif. At his hard-ticket dates, White will employ a no-phone policy with help from Yondr, a company that makes pouches for mobile devices. “It may take fans a minute to get accustomed to not having immediate access to their phones,” says White’s manager, Ian Montone, “but we’re hopeful that they will discover a greater connection to the music.”

Radiohead announce 2018 North American tour
The band will embark on a 16-date outing beginning in July
Radiohead have announced a 2018 North American tour.
Kicking off July 7th in Chicago, the 16-date outing includes multiple nights at New York’s Madison Square Garden; Montreal’s Belle Centre; Toronto’s Air Canada Centre; Boston’s TD Garden; and Philadelphia’s Wells Fargo Center. Radiohead will also visit cities like Detroit, Columbus, Cincinnati, and Pittsburgh.
A limited number of W.A.S.T.E. pre-sale tickets will be available beginning February 21st. The rest of the tickets will then go on sale on Friday, Feb. 23rd and Saturday, Feb. 24th. Head to Radiohead’s website for more information. Additionally, you can grab tickets here . Update – Feb. 23rd: A second show has been announced in Chicago for July 6th. Update – Feb. 24th: A fourth show has been announced in New York City for July 14th.
Today’s announcement is somewhat surprising as guitarist Ed O’Brien previous cautioned fans that the band’s touring in 2018 would be limited to a previously announced South American trek scheduled for April. The band had otherwise planned to focus on solo projects: Greenwood recently scored films for Paul Thomas Anderson’s Phantom Thread and the forthcoming You Were Never Really Here starring Joaquin Phoenix, while frontman Thom Yorke is working on a film score of his own for a remake of the horror cult classic Suspiria . Yorke has also expressed an interest in reactivating Atoms For Peace, and O’Brien is eyeing a 2018 release for his debut solo album .
