AEG Live is thrilled to announce Michael Franti & Spearhead live at Red Rocks Amphitheatre Saturday, July 31, 2010.

Franti, who recently completed a tour with John Mayer, has long been known for his electrifying live show.  His latest CD release All Rebel Rockers, was the highest debut album chart position of his career and his multi-format hit, “Say Hey (I Love You),” the most commercially success song of his career. It produced his first Top 20 Billboard Hot 100 single, was certified digital platinum and the song’s video garnered nearly 5 million YouTube views.

Franti’s performances are marked by a genuine openheartedness, a commitment to communication and a greater sense of community. “The people who come to see us seem to love the experience of the party as well as the message and the music,” he says.

Michael Franti is the creator and lead singer of Michael Franti & Spearhead. The Bay Area born Franti has been bringing our world exceptionally powerful, deeply felt music in a wide range of genres for twenty years. From the intense punk rock of the Beatnigs, to the deeply political rap he made with the Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy to his joyful and meaningful modern soul music with Spearhead, and now as Michael Franti & Spearhead, this still young man has released an impressive series of recordings that have vividly reflected his status as a musical citizen of this world.
