Christopher Cross will perform at all shows
Toto announces touring plans in the United Kingdom and ten counties across Europe for February 2025. Christopher Cross will join the Dogz of Oz for the monthlong run of shows that kick off February 1st in Glasgow and wrap March 2nd in Tampere, Finland.
Tickets for the majority of the appearances will be available via a general on-sale on Friday, September 13th with the Amsterdam show on sale on September 20th.
The Dogz of Oz continue to broaden their geographical activity, with plans this November to return to Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Columbia, Puerto Rico, and a special appearance in Mexico City as one of the headliners of Corona Capital. That plan will continue well into the future with ongoing performances worldwide.
Joining guitarist/vocalist Steve Lukather and vocalist Joseph Williams are keyboardist/vocalist Greg Phillinganes, drummer Shannon Forrest, bassist John Pierce, horns/percussionist/vocalist Warren Ham, and keyboardist/vocalist Dennis Atlas.
The band made its Hollywood Bowl debut on September 1st with a sold-out crowd.
“Africa” has been certified diamond for sales of ten million copies by the RIAA in The United States. Current cumulative sales for the song now exceed 10.5 million. Additionally, “Hold The Line” has been certified triple platinum for sales of three million copies. Current sales exceed 3.5 million. Lastly, “Rosanna” has been certified double platinum with sales of two million copies. Cumulative album sales now exceed 50 million.
In the world of streaming, the band’s repertoire is played more than three million times daily on Spotify alone by an audience that continues to get younger month to month. Over the course of July, 52% of all streams were from those 34 years or younger. There is a level of discovery on a global basis that continues to significantly grow year after year. Cumulative streaming at Spotify now exceeds four billion plays, with cumulative plays across all platforms approaching six billion plays.
Individually and collectively, the band’s family tree can be heard on an astonishing 5000 albums that together amass a sales history of a half a billion albums. Amongst these recordings, NARAS applauded the performances with hundreds of Grammy nominations. They are pop culture, and are one of the few 70’s bands that have endured the changing trends and styles while continuing to remain relevant.
