DAVID GUETTA ANNOUNCES U.S. TOUR IN SUPPORT OF
HIS NEW ALBUM ‘POP LIFE’
ALBUM NOW TO BE RELEASED NOVEMBER 13
As much as he is a heralded multi-platinum producer, DAVID GUETTA is also one of the world’s top in-demand DJs who makes music that satisfies mainstream pop radio and discerning dance floors alike. Perfecto/Ultra Records—the label releasing his new album Pop Life in the U.S.—has announced it is moving the album’s release date from October 23 to November 13 to coincide with the French pop/dance music superstar’s upcoming November DJ tour. On his “Pop Life” U.S. trek, Guetta will pass through eight major markets for special engagements at the hottest clubs in support of his new release.
These dates will highlight the dancefloor maven’s stellar DJ sets, emphasizing remixes and special edits of album tracks from Pop Life along with his favorite underground club cuts. They kick off November 15 in Denver at Church with back-to-back stops at On Broadway in San Diego, Vanguard in Los Angeles, Slide in San Francisco, crobar in Chicago, Cielo in New York City and The Estate in Boston. The tour will be rounded out with two appearances in one night at Cameo and after hours at Space in Miami.
Earlier this year, Guetta’s foray into the U.S. as a DJ included outstanding showings at Coachella (USA Today tapped him as one of the key highlights of the festival) and the Ultra Music Festival. He packed the country’s biggest nightclubs including Ruby Skye in San Francisco, Vanguard in Los Angeles crobar in Chicago and Cielo in New York. Along with his wife Cathy Guetta, he also transported his world-renowned ‘F*** Me I’m Famous’ party–which draw the likes of P Diddy, Penelope Cruz, Kate Moss, Jade Jagger, Damon Dash, James Blunt and Prince to their events in Paris, Ibiza and London–to Cameo in Miami during the Winter Music Conference which Billboard tapped “Best Party Of The Conference”).
Pop Life is David Guetta’s third artist album overall and second full-length offering in the states following the release of Guetta Blaster earlier this year. Just released in the U.K. August 20, Pop Life debuted at #3 on iTunes Dance Album Chart, with international taste-maker magazine Zoo stating, “Guetta’s third album is a rare beast: a dance music album with heart. Each track boasts soaring vocals that suck you in, alongside chart-friendly rave beats that you can’t write off as generic mixing mash-ups.” In France, the album debuted at #2 marking it Guetta’s largest yet. In the U.K., Pop Life’s first single “Love Is Gone” with Chris Willis on vocals charted at #9 on the national pop charts and is garnering major attention with heavy radio play on Radio 1, Capitol FM and Kiss FM. Across Europe the song ranked in the top 10 and in the U.S. it’s charting at #5 on Billboard’s Hot Dance Airplay chart. Prior to heading west, Guetta will serve as the closing headline DJ at the prestigious Ibiza club Space, heralded by many of the biggest turntable talents as #1 club in the world, wrapping up the most successful season for a DJ/producer ever recorded there.
