Stevie Wonder Concert

Living legend, Stevie Wonder, is a musical genius in my opinion.

I finally got to see him perform live in Atlanta this weekend at the “Can We Fix Our Nation’s Broken Heart” tour with my mentor radio host Queen Rasheeda Ali!

Check out Radio Host, Queen Rasheeda Ali, on 92.1 FM Smooth R&B!

I played piano growing up and so does my mentor. To see Mr. Stevie perform live with someone else who appreciates his artistry was everything!

I was always drawn to piano as child, but didn’t take lessons until I was 13. I also played violin in middle school.

My heart is literally OVERJOYED!!! Mr. Stevie had an orchestra, a band, and background singers. Pianist and singer Shelèa and a choir, and singer Major also performed too.

State Farm Arena was packed with such a diverse crowd of all ages and races and backgrounds.
“Overjoyed” from Mr. Stevie’s “In Square Circle” album played live with a symphony orchestra and band was absolutely beautiful.

Stevie sounds amazing live literally like his records and he’s in his 70s. He truly is a wonder. He really could’ve performed for additional hours because he has so many hits from the billboard hits to the b-sides and album cuts. My favorite performances of the night were “Overjoyed”, “My Cherie Amor”, and “All I Do”, and “Love’s in Need of the World Today”, and “Don’t You Worry ‘Bout A Thing!” Here’s a playlist of some of my favorite songs of his. Click below to listen on Spotify and click here to listen on Apple Music click here for Tidal. If you ever have a chance to see him live do so asap!!!

“Love’s in Need of the World Today” from “Songs in the Key of Life” album performed live with a choir, orchestra, and band.
