Stevie Wonder Concert Tour 2014 Starts November 6, Dedicating His Classics from 1976 Double Album "Songs in the Key of Life"

It's been five years since Stevie Wonder had his last concert tour, and now he's finally back to perform an 11-date concert tour starting November 6 at New York's Madison Square Garden. He will be performing all of the 21 songs from his classic 1976 double album "Songs in the Key of Life". The album featured hit songs such as "I wish" and "Isn't She Lovely". The concert will take place in 10 cities total.

The 64-year-old artist announced his new concert during a press conference in Los Angeles, stating that the upcoming concert tour will be different from the album's listening experience, "It's not going to be exactly like the album. But it will work perfectly well for how it feels best live". He said that the songs will be presented in a different order.

He also gave a preview of his upcoming tour by performing songs like "I wish" and "Sir Duke" to the guests at the press conference. One of the other songs he performed that day included an instrumental piece from "Songs in the Key of Life". He said that the piece will be also included in the concert tour. He ended the preview performance with the song "Superstition", just playing a few notes of the 1972 hit song before Stevie Wonder exclaimed, "That's enough!"

The artist said he will be having a similar concert in December at his annual House Full of Toys benefit event. Tickets are already available in all cities.

Stevie Wonder concert tour 2014 starts on November 6 at New York's Madison Square garden, and ends December 5 at Oakland's Oracle Arena.
