‘GET WILD – LIVE’
11 NORTH AMERICAN CITIES TO FEATURE AN 11 PERSON ENSEMBLE
‘GET WILD’
OUT APRIL 7 ON ULTRA RECORDS
Fans will be treated to guest appearances by the featured artists on Get Wild, his debut solo album due out April 7 on Ultra Records with vocalists Anousheh Khalili (Deep Dish) and Mario Vasquez (American Idol). Top visualist VJ Culture (Beck, Mary J Blige, Diddy) and a troupe of eight dancers, aerialists and special acts helmed by Artistic Director Geneviève Cleary (Cirque du Soleil, Perfecto @ Rain) will join Sharam in Miami, Boston, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Columbus, Chicago, New York, Washington, Salt Lake City and San Diego. Special guests will also join on various stops throughout.
The GET WILD – LIVE show will present the most original performances inspired by the old Western Era. A spaghetti Western-themed short film, in addition to the videos for the title track "Get Wild" and for the single “She Came Along” with Kid Cudi–all of which SHARAM directed–make up the visual elements of the show. Performances and special acts woven intricately throughout the show provide visual and physical representations of SHARAM’s music to allow the audience’s senses to become further enveloped.
This marks the world premier of this innovative and unique production, created by artistic director Genvieve Cleary. Named “one of Montreal’s most innovative young women” by the Canadian Press in 2008, Cleary has been showcasing the originality of her vision and her company, Belluscious, in events staged from the U.S. to Brazil, including clients like Cirque du Soleil, Mercedes Benz, Chanel, the International Film Festival and world renowned DJs and celebrity events. Together this team will be treating us to a synchronized visual & vocal interpretation of the album.
SHARAM (known to many as one half of Grammy Award-winning DJ super-duo Deep Dish) has developed this unique experience in support of his long-awaited debut studio album Get Wild. It highlights new material from different landscapes in dance music, including collaborations with Daniel Bedingfield, P. Diddy, Tommy Lee and Kid Cudi. Songs range from house gems like "Get Wild" (Essential Miami WMC Tune of 2008), the techno-infused summer anthem "Texi" (hailed as one of the top Ibiza records of 2008) and its darker sibling stormer "Crazi" (praised by the who’s who of the techno scene as the sleeper record of the fall of 2008). Also included are “PATT with Diddy," a new version of his hit single “PATT” featuring Diddy and "The One" with Daniel Bedingfield, both of which are international chart-toppers.
