Aloe Blacc, real name Egbert Nathaniel Dawkins III, released one of the year’s most catchiest singles. His song ‘I Need A Dollar’ gained international success and was a mainstay on many radio stations. Blacc, with only his first single, was invited to perform on Later Night with Jimmy Fallon, Conan and Later...with Jools Holland. After this well earned exposure he had everybody who heard it singing the lyrics non-stop for weeks. Aloe Blacc’s first step into the world of music in the mid 90s as an MC in the hip-hop duo Emanon which also featured DJ and producer Exile. As a solo artist Blacc worked on bringing together his fusion of soul, hip-hop and R&B whilst writing and recording his 2006 self-produced debut Shine Through. In September Blacc finally released his follow-up record, ‘Good Things’.
Aloe Blacc has seemingly exploded onto the scene from nowhere recently. Although he has been heavily involved in music for some years it was not gaining much commercial success. However with his latest album he has truly caused a stir - having a great first single really does help! It’s always a surprise to see someone pop out of relative obscurity to all of a sudden being the name on everybody’s lips but suffice it to say there is real excitement around Aloe Blacc tickets right now. Expect to hear some of the best soul music around right now along with a few covers thrown in too. But above all, just wait until you hear ‘I Need A Dollar’!
Since his out-of-nowhere burst onto the soul and R&B scene Aloe Blacc tickets have been selling out worldwide. Blacc is playing just a few shows across the U.K. so tickets are going to sell out quickly. We can show you a some places where they are still available though so you don’t have to miss out!
