Two years in the making, yanni returns to the global stage with a great new tour. for the first time yanni, re-interprets his classic compostions and debuts new music introducing show stopping vocalist.
Nathan pacheco-A Washington, DC native, Pacheco possesses an operatic voice, reminiscent of his Brazilian roots, and sings with the warmth, depth and accessibility that characterizes the great pop artists. This talented singer also writes lyrics in Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish with the passion of a poet. It is the voice, however, that immediately draws people.
Cloe- A native of Largo, Florida, Chloe got an early start on her already lengthy career. She began dancing at the age of three and began writing and singing not long after that. She grew up listening to an eclectic mix of Broadway musicals and pop tunes that shaped her melodic sensibilities. By the age of nine she was already performing professionally at corporate events, and by twelve years of age she was signed to a major-label recording contract with RCA Records
Ender Thomas-Hailing from one of the most hauntingly beautiful and diverse regions on the planet, Venezuelan-born singer Ender Thomas grew up in a musical family. His mother, a singer herself, instilled in him his love of music and a passion for pursuing his muse. As a child, he immersed himself in the many rich styles of music that surrounded him and listened to everything from the traditional romantic ballads of his country, the bolero, to the soundtracks of classic Disney musicals – the lyrics to which he can still recite to this day
Leslie Mills-A native of Fort Mitchell in Northern Kentucky, Leslie discovered an affinity for music at an early age, studying piano, dance and theater. She also wrote poetry as a child and began to compose songs after high school
