Eliot Sumner Tickets

ELIIOT SUMNER IN CONCERT:

British indie darling Eliot Paulina Sumner isn't one to conform to musical trends—or anything for that matter. The child of singular British rocker Sting, Eliiot's non-conformist roots go deep, even extending all the way down to their gender (Eliot, aka Coco, doesn't believe in gender labels and prefers the pronoun "they"). Like their father, their sound is a heady mix of new wave and arena rock laced with soaring synths and anthemic melodies anchored by a deep, arresting voice. And rock and roll isn't the only thing that runs in the family—Eliot also shares Sting's knack for delivering amazing performances that draw audiences in and hold them in rapt attention until the very last note. Completing the picture at the band's live shows is a talented backing group on drums, guitar, and synths that keep the energy high on tracks like "Information" and "Dead Arms & Dead Legs". Ticket buyers looking for something different won't want to miss this maverick performer anytime they bring their powerful new wave sound and captivating showmanship to the stage. 

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Eliot Paulina Sumner was born in Tuscany but raised in England by parents Sting and Trudie Styler. Growing up surrounded by music, Eliot started playing instruments at an early age and was penning original songs by 15. They signed with Island Records at age 17 under the moniker I Blame Coco and released their debut album The Constant, a shimmering slice of electropop that landed on charts across Europe and spawned the popular singles "Self Machine" and "Quicker". After successful collaborations with artists like Sub Focus and Miike Snow, they released the 2014 EP Information under the name Eliot Sumner. The record explored a more rock-oriented new wave sound, earning praise from critics and drawing Eliot out for an international tour with Swedish pop sensation Lykke Li. Eliot continues to defy categorization, both in their personal life and with stellar releases like their 2016 sophomore album Information.
