Matt Goss has come a long way since his denim-clad days as lead vocalist and one third of eighties boy band Bros.
Upon embarking on his career as a solo artist, Goss released his debut album, The Key, in 1995. Changing direction to a more adult-oriented dance sound. Focusing on writing rather than performing, brought Matt Goss a new-found lease of success. In writing the theme for the US TV show So You Think You Can Dance and the track Change Me, as recorded by Akon and Keri Higson, Goss opened himself up to a whole new market. The track Lovely Las Vegas was even used by NASCAR as a theme song, which led to Goss performing for 140,000 people at the NASCAR Las Vegas event.
Yet another direction change saw Goss reinvent himself as a Las Vegas headline act, creating a contemporary rendition of a classic Rat Pack era Vegas show, Matt signed a lucrative three-year contract to headline Caesar’s Palace in 2010, following in the footsteps of acts like Elton John and Celine Dion. The live show featured a nine-piece live band and a dance troupe and comprised of tracks from Goss’s career alongside classic Rat Pack era tracks.
Last month fans of Matt had the chance to get up close and personal with the singer when he brought his Vegas show to the UK.
Hosted across the country in the intimate surroundings of Hilton Hotels, the much-loved star put on an awesome performance with a collection of Christmas classics, popular covers and some of his own material. Rat Pack eat your heart out!
These exclusive events were direct from Las Vegas and included champagne, wine, a sumptuous four-course meal and of course an awesome performance from Matt accompanied by his 9-piece band, singers and stunning Las Vegas showgirls.
The roof was certainly raised and can only be described as one of the most fun nights of the year!
The Matt Goss “A Vegas Christmas” was produced by Mark Harrison and his team at LPH Concerts (the brains behind Bedford Park Concerts and Ronan Keating at Kimbolton Castle).
