Miguel
Mean Fiddler is pleased to announce that US sensation Miguel will come to the UK for a small selection of live shows in January 2013, following a tour of his homeland this year that will see the star play venues including LA’s Nokia Arena and Madison Square Garden’s Theatre in New York.
The young R&B superstar’s latest album Kaleidoscope Dream has taken the world by storm following its release just a few weeks ago. Debuting at No. 3 in the Billboard 200, the record has received much praise from critics and fans alike, with almost a quarter of million sales already amounted. The second album for this extremely talented and dedicated artist saw Miguel take a more creative lead as principal writer and producer on the project, which has clearly paid off with its popularity to date.
Raised in LA, Miguel spent his childhood influenced by his Mother and Father’s wide-ranging musical tastes, exposed to the sounds of R&B, funk, hip hop, jazz, soul and classic rock, he pursued an interest in making music from an early age and at 14 years old he was already songwriting and developing ideas.
Miguel’s sound is undeniably original and electric; an assault of the senses beginning with his rich soulful and sweet vocal, combined with a fusion of electro-tinged R&B that has a hip-hop edge and all the balls of rock. Kaleidoscope Dream is an album full of standout tracks and these live shows will be filled with all the energy of the record, combined with the thrills that seeing Miguel perform promises.
