Underwood, Bryan stage first Vegas residencies

Tuesday, May 11, 2021 – Carrie Underwood and Luke Bryan will stage their first-ever residencies in Las Vegas starting late this year.

Underwood will perform as REFLECTION: The Las Vegas Residency, at The Theatre at Resorts World Las Vegas, on Dec. 1, 3, 4, 8, 10 and 11.

Bryan kicks off his six-show engagement beginning on Friday, Feb. 11, 2022.

Celine Dion and Katy Perry also are participating as the founding headliners at the Strip's new 3,500-room luxury destination opening June 24. The 5,000-capacity theatre opens in November 2021.

Dion returns to Las Vegas with a brand-new show and a special opening night performance to benefit COVID-19 Relief on Friday, Nov. 5. Perry will take the stage on Wednesday, Dec. 29.

Underwood said, "Touring is one of my favorite things I get to do as a performer, and we've all really been missing that. I love being on the road and coming to the fans where they live, but it will also be fun to get to do multiple shows in one place where people will be able to come to get that concert experience and have some fun in Las Vegas at the same time. It's such a special honor to be one of the first artists to get to perform in a brand new, beautiful, state-of-the-art theatre at such an exciting new destination as Resorts World Las Vegas."

"The show title refers to the fact that this show will reflect the amazing journey I've been on for the past 16 years, as well as a glimpse into what lies ahead," she said.

Underwood has arranged for a donation of $1 from each ticket sold to be contributed to Make-A-Wish Foundation of America, which grants life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. Underwood has been involved with the organization for more than 15 years, granting wishes since the beginning of her recording career.

"We are looking forward to putting a show together for the fans in Vegas that will be a unique way to see me in concert, something different than coming to a show on the road," said Bryan. "When I saw the renderings and all of the state-of-the-art technology that The Theatre at Resorts World Las Vegas was offering I just knew this was a place I had to headline. I am already working on ideas and set lists for these shows and can't wait to get in front of the fans on this new playground where I can create a fun and super high energy experience."

Tickets, plus a limited number of VIP and premium ticket packages will go on sale to the public starting Monday, May 24 at 10 a.m. Pacific time at AXS.com. Official Carrie Underwood Fan Club Members will get first access to tickets beginning Monday, May 17 at 10 a.m. Pacific.

The Theatre at Resorts World Las Vegas is a joint development between Resorts World Las Vegas and concert promoter AEG Presents. The multi-level venue designed by the international design firm, Scéno Plus, will be home to Las Vegas's largest and tallest performance stage with the furthest seat 150 feet from the stage.

CD reviews for Luke Bryan

CD review - Born Here Live Here Die Here deluxe If there's one thing Luke Bryan knows how to do, it's to stay in his lane. And why not? It often leads to great chart position. The Deluxe edition of his seventh album "Born Here, Live Here, Die Here" was born out of the pandemic tour stoppage. It includes six new songs and increases the run time to 54 minutes. The original 10 tracks are mostly in the vein of the pop laced chart toppers "One Margarita" and "Knockin' Boots." With writing ...
CD review - Born Here, Live Here, Die Here After taking in Luke Bryan's "Born Here Live Here Die Here," the listener will never guess this full length was released during a pandemic. Maybe that's a good thing. After all, we might need a diversion from the international health crisis now and then. The release opens with "Knockin' Boots," which is how modern cowboys describe sexual intercourse. A few songs later, Bryan gives us the drinking song (and single) "One Margarita." In between, "What ...
CD review - What Makes You Country Luke Bryan aims to please often, and that rarely goes unpunished. The Georgia native has a strong voice, some songwriting skill and even legitimate farming cred. But Bryan still gets pegged as the face of corporate country - that pandering beast packaging artists for mass consumption. The label can be unfair, but not wholly undeserved - Bryan has a long track record, for instance, of records about chasing girls and Bud Lights. In truth, he married his college sweetheart and they share a quiet, ...
