Winners of NDTV Entertainers of the year award 2011.
Shankar Mahadevan, Ehsaan Noorani and Loy Mendonsa have scored some of Bollywood’s most magical moments of all time.

Their classic songs for films such as Kal Ho Naa Ho, Dil Chahta Hai and My Name is Khan have launched many of India’s most successful albums of the last decade.

Now, as Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara becomes one of the top 10 highest-grossing blockbusters in history, Bollywood’s most highly sought songwriter-musicians bring their spectacular live show to Australia for the first time.

 “We are so excited to perform in Australia for the first time,” says singer Shankar Mahadevan. “The live stage offers a new dimension for us.

To bring our songs off the screen and into a concert environment is a dream come true and we have been knocked out by the response from crowds who know every note intimately.”

The worldly approach and vast musical vocabulary of Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy has long transcended the richness of Indian culture to invoke and engage with the broader world. Now, for the first time, experience their ecstatic energy in performance on this historic Australian stage debut.

ASONDEGUERRA is a worldwide tour featuring the Dominican singer JUAN LUIS GUERRA, the artist´s company and his band are touring around the world.  The artist and the company have more than 20 years of experience in the industry are holding the actual and past record sales in the Latin community.

He is one of and considered the most internationally recognized Latin artists of recent decades. His pop style of merengue, salsa, bachata and bolero and Afro-pop/Latin fusion has garnered him considerable success throughout Latin America. Guerra is sometimes associated as the biggest promoter and producer of the Dominican music called bachata, and while this association is partly true, he actually uses the basics of Bachata rhythm with a more bolero feel to the melodies in some of his songs. He does not limit himself to one style of music; instead, he incorporates diverse rhythms like merengue, bolero-bachata, balada, salsa and rock and roll. “Ojalá Que Llueva Café" ("I Wish It Would Rain Coffee") is one of his most critically acclaimed self-written and composed pieces. A remix of “La Llave de Mi Corazón" ("The key to my heart") with Taboo from The Black Eyed Peas is also an example of his fusion of genres.

Juan Luis Guerra has been described as the most anticipated event of 2012, so don't miss out.
