Billy Idol live in Kelowna

Rock icon Billy Idol will bring his 2016 North American tour to Prospera Place in Kelowna on July 14. Idol’s show is among the latest to be announced on Idol’s “Kings & Queens Of The Underground Live” World Tour which has been touring the globe for more than a year.

Billy Idol was an early architect of the sound, style, and fury of punk rock. His lip­ curling sneer and fist­ pumping persona vaulted him into the mainstream as one of MTV’s first megastars, making him one of the most recognizable faces in pop music, while selling out arenas everywhere he played. He has sold 40 million albums while scoring numerous platinum albums worldwide, nine top forty singles in the U.S. and 10 in the U.K. including “Dancing With Myself, “White Wedding,” “Rebel Yell,” “Mony Mony,” “Eyes Without A Face,” “Flesh For Fantasy,” and “Cradle Of Love.”

Billy was responsible for some of punk rock’s most memorable, literate, and evocative moments and created a pioneering new sound by bringing the spirit of ’77 to the dance floor, going on to fashion an immediately identifiable musical blueprint that integrates club­land throb, rockabilly desperation, and rock ’n’ roll decadence.

Tickets go on sale this Friday May 6 at 10 a.m. and will be available from the Select Your Tickets box office at Prospera Place and online at www.selectyourtickets.com.
