Australia’s preeminent pop group Human Nature is bringing its world class harmonies to the Showroom at Turning Stone on Thursday, March 1, at 8 p.m.
“We are so excited to bring our ‘Jukebox’ to cities across the USA with our national tour, CDand PBS special,” said Toby Allen of Human Nature.
The band is touring in support of its new release “Jukebox - The Ultimate Playlist.” They’ve also filmed a PBS special called “Human Nature: Jukebox - In Concert from the Vene- tian.” “Jukebox” has been praised by critics and fans for it’s broad musical offering and production.
Human Nature mix pop rock classics with Doo-wop, Motown, soul standards and more. Toby Allen, Phil Burton, and brothers Andrew and Mike Tierney, are joined on stage by a dynamic band, The Jukebox All-Stars, and world-class dancers, as they celebrate a mix of musical genres that covers classic hits as well as chart topping hits of today.
“Jukebox” is not only a playlist of the group’s influences, but some of the most-loved hit songs from the best vocal artists and groups of all time, including “Why Do Fools Fall in Love,” “Stand By Me,” “Unchained Melody,” “Higher and Higher,” “Dance To TheMusic” and “Under The Boardwalk.”
The PBS special is inspired by and based on the group’s two Australian multi-platinum selling albums, “Jukebox” and “Gimme Some Lovin,’” which feature classic ‘50s and ‘60s pop standards. In addition, the group has also included two original tunes, “End of Days” and “Forgive Me Now.”
