Carlos Vives is gearing up to shine brighter than ever with his Tour Al Sol, Billboard Español can exclusively announce today (Nov. 10). The Colombian superstar’s upcoming North American tour, kicking off on April 16, will celebrate more than three decades of his illustrious career by revisiting timeless hits from his seminal albums Clásicos de La Provincia (1994) and La Tierra del Olvido (1995), as well as songs from the newly reimagined La Tierra del Olvido 30 Años (Remastered & Expanded), released in July.

“Each show of Tour al Sol will be a concert from sunrise to sunset — a journey through the emotions of music that moves with the sun,” Vives tells Billboard Español. “It will feature a selection of songs, including the most remarkable vallenatos of my career, and pay tribute to classics.” He adds, “In short, Tour al Sol is a concert with the sun of La Provincia.”

Ed Sheeran Addresses Controversy at First Show Since Openers, Backing Band Dropped Off Tour, Calls It ‘The Best Show of My Life’

Before his show in Philadelphia, Sheeran read a statement acknowledging the issue of Israel and Palestine, but still tried to keep things neutral.

Ed Sheeran needed to address the situation before he could start playing guitar. It wasn’t how he wanted to start his show, and he’s made it abundantly clear that the last thing he wants around him is controversy or, in his words, to be an “activist musician.”

But here he was, at the first show after his opener and friend Macklemore was kicked off the tour, following pressure by a group of venue owners led by Robert Kraft who took issue with Macklemore’s statement of support toward Palestine. That led to the rest of the tour’s openers and even Sheeran’s backing band for the tour dropping off the tour in solidarity with Macklemore — all of which became a huge news story and PR nightmare for the usually very un-controversial Sheeran. And though he had already made one highly scrutinized statement online while the news story was at its most potent, Sheeran felt the need to address the crowd at Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field on Saturday night (Sept. 19) in person, before the show really started.
