The Van Wezel Welcomes David Foster To The Stage Next Month

The tour will continue through the winter and into 2022 with more dates to be announced. 

By:

Grammy award-winning producer David Foster is coming to the Van Wezel on Monday December 6th at 8 p.m. to continue his coast-to-coast sold-out performance, An Intimate Evening with David Foster - THE HITMAN TOUR.

David Foster launched his first U.S. tour in more than eight years in 2018-2019 and is set to return to the stage for dates in 2021 and 2022 for the successfully sold-out tour.

An Intimate Evening with David Foster, is just that: an intimate evening with one of the biggest musical forces of our time. The 16-time Grammy award-winning writer/producer performs songs he wrote or produced from his four decades of hits and also includes fascinating storytelling about the songs, artists and moments of his life. Some of the music man's hits include Celine Dion's "Because You Loved Me," Whitney Houston's "The Bodyguard", Earth Wind and Fire's "After The Love Is Gone," Chicago's" You're The Inspiration", Josh Groban's "You Raise Me Up," Michael Buble's "Home," Natalie Cole's "Unforgettable" and many, many more.

David released his first solo piano album of new compositions in 2020 called Eleven Words. His official feature documentary 'Off The Record' was released on Netflix in 2020 to critical acclaim. Foster is gearing up to take on Broadway with several projects including writing the music for a new musical about the iconic animated character Betty Boop. He is also writing the music for a musical based on the Amy Bloom novel and New York Times bestseller Lucky Us.

The tour will continue through the winter and into 2022 with more dates to be announced.
