Stevie Wonder Announces Philly Concert, Calls for 'Joy Over Anger'
Stevie Wonder is bringing his 'The Stevie Wonder Song Party -- A Celebration of Life, Love & Music' tour to Philadelphia in October, and is inspiring feelings of hope and resilience with a message of unity.
The concert, which will be held at the Wells Fargo Center on October 27, is part of Wonder's larger tour that kicked off in May 2022.
The tour is a celebration of Wonder's illustrious career and his positive outlook on life. In an interview with NPR, Wonder talked about his desire to spread joy and love through his music, especially during these challenging times.
"We're in a time when there's so much division and anger," Wonder said. "I want to bring people together and remind them of the power of love and joy. Music has the ability to do that."
Wonder's message of unity is particularly poignant in light of the recent mass shootings in the United States. In the wake of these tragedies, Wonder has been outspoken in his call for stricter gun control laws.
"We can't keep letting this happen," Wonder said. "We need to come together and demand change. We need to put an end to gun violence and create a more just and equitable society."
Wonder's concert in Philadelphia is sure to be a powerful and uplifting experience. Fans can expect to hear Wonder's classic hits, as well as some new songs. Wonder is also known for his incredible live performances, and this concert is sure to be no exception.
