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 Raised Me Up,” Michael Bublé’s “Home,” Natalie Cole’s “Unforgettable,” and many, many more. Few other individuals can claim to have their fingerprints on more major moments in all of popular music than David Foster.

Foster will be accompanied by his four-piece band along with stellar guest singers Fernando Varela (America’s Got Talent), Pia Toscano (American Idol) and Sheléa (Stevie Wonder).
