Duran Duran to play at Lake Tahoe Outdoor Concert series

British pop/rock superstars Duran Duran are coming to Lake Tahoe for the 2019 Lake Tahoe Summer Concert Series at Harveys Outdoor Arena on Friday, Sept. 13.

At the dawn of the ‘80s, a group of young men in Birmingham, England had a sound in their ears - one with echoes of glam, art-pop and dance. The band they formed quickly became a household name and, four decades later, Duran Duran have sold over 100 million records, had 18 American hit singles, 20 UK Top 20 tunes and continue to perform to huge concert audiences around the world.

More remarkable still is the way the band — singer Simon Le Bon, keyboardist Nick Rhodes, bassist John Taylor and drummer Roger Taylor — have achieved this: by fusing pop music, art, technology, and fashion with a sense of style and confidence all their own. Never losing the desire to innovate, they have proven themselves timeless and have always remained ahead of the curve.

Hit songs recorded by Duran Duran include: “A View to a Kill,” “Save a Prayer,” “Girls on Film,” “Finest Hour,” “Come Undone,” “Hungry Like the Wolf,” “Rio” and many more.

Their most recent album, Paper Gods, is the iconic British band’s highest-charting release in 22 years and has been hailed by critics and fans alike as their best body of work in two decades. This, their fourteenth studio album, was produced by Grammy award-winners Mark Ronson and Nile Rodgers, alongside Mr Hudson and Josh Blair. It features collaborations with Janelle Monáe, John Frusciante, Kiesza and Jonas Bjerre (of Mew.)

Ticket prices for Duran Duran at Harveys range between $69.50 and $149.50. Nevada Live Entertainment Tax (LET) and Ticketmaster fees will be applied to the prices listed. Tickets sold only thru Ticketmaster Outlets, www.ticketmaster.com or www.apeconcerts.com. Tickets go on sale Friday, May 17 at 10 a.m. PDT.
