Lionel Richie at Big Dome, April 5

MANILA, Philippines - Lionel Richie will be bringing his All The Hits – All Night Long World Tour to Manila on Saturday, April 5 at the Araneta Coliseum.

Five-time Grammy Award winner Lionel is a music icon known for his solo hits and as a member of the Commodores. Collectively, he has sold more than 100 million albums, and written and recorded chart-topping hits including Hello, Say You Say Me, Stuck On You, Easy, All Night Long and Endless Love.

Touring the USA, Europe, Australia and Asia, Lionel promises this tour to be unique, not-to-be-missed concert performing all of his greatest hits, where the music legend has already been receiving five-star reviews.

The Hollywood Reporter said: “Looking and sounding as good as he did a quarter century ago, he delivered a high energy set that mixed his trademark balladry with funkier songs from his Commodore days.”

The Houston Press added: “Lionel Richie has been helping us dance, cry, and love better than the sum of all of our current pop stars combined.”

And the Atlanta Constitution Journal summed it up simply: “Good times never felt so good.”

Lionel rose from humble beginnings in Tuskegee, Alabama, to become one of the most influential figures in music. Lionel was singer, songwriter and front man of the legendary band The Commodores, with hits including Brick House, Too Hot To Trot and Machine Gun.
