With smashers such as "Don't Bring Me Down", "Rock 'n Roll is King", and "Blue Sky", it comes as no surprise that they reached the top of the charts, sold over 50 million records worldwide, collected over 78 awards, topped the Billboard, and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
The Electric Light Orchestra is pulling all stops out before they bid us farewell – it is, after all, playing live that gives their music that distinctive Electric Light Orchestra sound we came to love. With tickets starting at only $73, you can’t afford to miss it! Get your tickets now!
Monumental: the word that comes to mind when describing Jeff Lynne’s Electric Light Orchestra.
They are diverse, soulful, adventurous, ambitious, and larger than life. The persistence of Jeff Lynne's excellent songwriting has earned the Electric Light Orchestra a spot among the greats. Their music transcends genres: disco meets pop meets rock meets classical meets futurism in a wide range of catchy tunes, brilliant musicianship, pleasing rhythms, and telling stories while they're at it.
Stemming from multi-instrumentalists and masterminds Jeff Lynne and Roy Wood’s desire to create rock and pop music with classical overtones, the Electric Light Orchestra, with their distinctive, ambitious sound, catering to everyone's taste saw the 'electric' light. With creativity and execution, way ahead of its time, the result was fresh music – not only in the 1970s when they broke the scene, but even today.
Ever since, the Electric Light Orchestra has not produced one single track that isn't good - from the catchy and soulful "Shine a Little Love" to the slow and mature "Need to Love", from the of-the-era "Last Train to London" to the raw, heartfelt, and hooky "Confusion".
The exceptional creativity and excellent musicianship have earned Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra multiple awards, a large amount of awards, as well as an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
