Few songstresses in the world are as famous for love ballads as Anita Baker. Her classy, powerful voice and refined jazzy melodies defined the so-called Quiet Storm era of the 80s. In fact, the term \u2018quiet storm\u2019 perfectly expresses what Anita is all about. Although most of her repertoire consists of ballads, the underlying passion with which she delivers every line has captured the hearts and minds of millions.<\/p>\n<p>After a string of farewell performances and issues regarding the rights to her master recordings, many fans were worried that they\u2019ll never get a chance to hear Baker perform live. Thankfully, though, the R&amp;B master is going on a tour that will kick off in February 2023. The tour is slated to last throughout 2023, so you\u2019ll have plenty of chances to hear her hits.<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019ll grace the State Farm Arena in Atlanta right on the 14<sup>th<\/sup>, which marks it as one of the most sought-after dates on a very popular tour.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the quintessential Valentine\u2019s Day 2023 event you don\u2019t want to miss.

Declan Patrick MacManus, better known as Elvis Costello, boasts a discography that ranges from new wave to punk. Arguably, however, he is best known for heart-string-pulling hits like \u2018She\u2019 and \u2018I Want You\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike some other acts known for ballads, though, Costello\u2019s shows are filled with ups and downs. Songs that will melt your heart stand right next to those that will make you dance, which is what makes his act a perfect Valentine\u2019s Day experience.<\/p>\n<p>The Elvis Costello 2023 tour will kick off with an incredible string of 10 shows in New York\u2019s Gramercy Theatre. In other words, even if you miss tickets for the Big Day, worry not \u2013 you\u2019ll have plenty of chances to make it up to your favorite person. The tour will then move on to a series of cities across the US and Australia.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketcenter.com\/elvis-costello-tickets\/5282125\">Click here<\/a> to check out available Elvis Costello tickets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Elvis Costello Tour Dates:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Us and Australia Tour: February 9 \u2013 May 28,<\/p>\n<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day show: February 14, Gramercy Theatre, Atlanta, GA<\/p>\n<h2>Portland Symphony Orchestra: The Romantics &#8211; Rachmaninoff &amp; Schumann \u2013 Portland, ME<\/h2>\n<p>The acclaimed Portland Symphony Orchestra can enrich your Valentine\u2019s Day with a truly special selection of classical pieces.
