Everclear to Perform Outdoor Concert Saturday at Celebrity Square

As part of the 2Thousand10 Concert Series co-sponsored by Hard Rock Café and Celebrity Square at Broadway at the Beach, world renowned alternative rock artists Everclear will be performing live at Celebrity Square on Saturday, June 19 at 8 p.m.

After a solo tour in the fall of 2003, Everclear lead vocalist Art Alexakis decided to organize a new band under the same name that made its debut in March 2004.  The new lineup released its first recording, a cover of Woody Guthrie’s “This Land Is Your Land,” that summer. Alexakis, an Oregon delegate, performed the song (as well as “Everything to Everyone”) with an acoustic guitar during a CNN interview at the 2004 Democratic National Convention.

On October 6, 2009, the band released In a Different Light, a collection of re-recordings of old Everclear songs in a more acoustic fashion. The collection also featured two new Everclear songs “Here Comes the Darkness,” which was actually a leftover track from Welcome to the Drama Club, and “At the End of the Day,” which Alexakis had written and performed with Marion Raven.

Tickets are $15 in advance or $20 on the day of the show. They can be purchased in the Rock Shop located inside Hard Rock Café, or by calling 843-946-0007 ext. 206 or ext. 208.

The concert will be held outside in Celebrity Square, rain or shine.  No coolers or pets.  All tickets are general admission.

A portion of ticket proceeds will benefit the V Foundation for Cancer Research.
