David Garrett Tickets – Taking On North America For Spring

David Garrett Tickets – Taking On North America For Spring

He’s turning his American fame from the PBS special “Live in Berlin” to a full-blown tour that visits cities like Charlotte, Nashville, Clearwater and others through the spring. The German violinist is making his string instrument one of the hottest new instruments out there – apart from recently appearing on Oprah, where he received a brilliant scream in appreciation, David Garrett’s rocker looks and sweet German charm keep all the women swooning and the men in awe (who else can play a violin and make it seem extremely manly?). If you want to see what all the buzz is about this year as Garrett continues to roll through Ft. Lauderdale and Dallas, pick up <a rel=”nofollow” onclick=”javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview(‘/outgoing/article_exit_link’);” href=”http://www.stubhub.com/david-garrett-tickets/”>David Garrett tickets</a> from http://www.stubhub.com.

Already hailed the biggest thing to come from Germany in centuries, Garrett is making quite the impression on American audiences as he continues to tour through April, playing everything from Mozart classics to rock tunes from AC/DC and Metallica. With high notes from both the BBC Music Magazine, who calls him ‘the stuff of legend,” to People Magazine, who hails him as a “classical hottie,” the 28-year-old star finds fans in all forms. To add even more glam to glory, Garrett will even be included in this year’s Guinness Book of World Records as the fastest performer to play “Flight of the Bumblebee.”

A child prodigy who had a full-blown classical music career at 13, Garrett was born in Aache, Germany and started playing music by the time he could walk. At just eight years old the young musician was playing in front of the world’s largest audiences behind some of the world’s best orchestras (like the London Philharmonic and the Los Angeles Philharmonic), busting out solo performances praised by all. By the time he was a teenager, after already working with legendary Yehudi Menuhin, Garrett signed to Deutsche Cgrammophon as a solo artist and began touring.

As any normal teenager will do, however, Garrett rebelled. Not truly in the sense of the word, though, the 13-year-old violinist who had never listened to anything other than classical music started exploring other kinds of musical genres in rock, pop and hip-hop. “I’d listened to nothing but classical music until the age of 14,” he said on his website. “So when I started going to regular school, and started to be exposed to all this pop and rock, it was a revelation.” The result in his music was something unheard of, which gave Garrett even more of an edge in the revolutionary classic world.

Already a huge star in Europe, where he’s headlined arena tours and earned two gold discs, it was time to find crossover success. The first American release from Garrett appeared with Decca in 2009 and featured singles like “He’s a Pirate” from the film Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, his own compilation “Chelsea Girl” and even Michael Jackson’s “Smooth Criminal.” American fans, who helped the eponymous album reach the top spot on Billboard Top Heatseekers, Classic Crossover Albums and 116th on the Billboard 200, might recognize his tunes as Garrett doubles as the spokesperson for Banana Republic. With good looks, serious musical charisma and millions of fans to boot, Garrett has nothing to worry about when he takes on American audiences this spring.
