Underwood sells out Hollywood Bowl

Monday, October 4, 2010 – Carrie Underwood brought her "Play On Tour" to Los Angeles over the weekend performing to a sold-out crowd of 17,000 fans Saturday at the Hollywood Bowl, her first concert at the venue.

"What an honor it is to stand on this stage," Underwood said during the show. "I have never had the honor of being here ever before in my life. I have only seen it on TV and in movies, so excuse me if I get a little emotional tonight. The wall of people in front of me is just spectacular. This is truly an unforgettable night - thank you so much."

Underwood and her band performed alongside the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra. Among the show highlights was Underwood's vocal delivery on the hymn How Great Thou Art, which brought the entire enthusiastic crowd to its feet delivering the loudest and longest standing ovation of her career, according to her publicist. Randy Travis made a surprise appearance as he joined Underwood for their hit duet I Told You So, and rock guitarist Orianthi played on the number one song Last Name. The concert concluded with an encore of fireworks choreographed to Underwood's hit Before He Cheats and show-closer Songs Like This.

CD review - My Gift It makes logical sense that Carrie Underwood, arguably mainstream country music's best pure vocalist, would make a Christmas album. And make no mistake about it, this is a 'Christmas' album, as opposed to a 'holiday' release. These 11 tracks are nearly all spiritual in nature. Therefore, you won't hear about Santa, reindeer or even toys under the tree. The only truly secular track is "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas," which is not – by a long ...
CD review - Cry Pretty Carrie Underwood's life was reading straight from the storybooks: one of the few American Idol Winners with ongoing success; a professional athlete for a husband; a beautiful baby boy. The string of great fortune turned sharply in 2017, when Underwood began the unfathomable experience of three consecutive lost pregnancies. This was atop a frightening fall at her home that ended with her face in nearly 50 stitches. Sharing these moments with her fans makes the beamingly-beautiful singer ...
