ETV to Broadcast “Stevie Wonder: Live at Last”
For Immediate Release
May 4, 2009
Columbia, SC...On Wednesday, June 17 at 8 p.m., ETV airs Great Performances: Stevie Wonder: Live at Last. In commemoration of the 50th anniversary of Motown Records, this musical extravaganza captures Grammy Award-winning artist Stevie Wonder in his first concert performance recorded for television.
In the two-hour broadcast, the multi-talented Motown master brings a dazzling performance of such chart-topping hits as “Isn’t She Lovely,” “My Cherie Amour” and “Signed, Sealed, Delivered I’m Yours.”
Filmed in October 2008, this concert marks his return to Europe, after more than a decade, to perform to a packed house at London’s O2 Arena. Wonder pulls out all the hits, keeps the crowd on its feet and doesn’t miss a beat during this tour-de-force performance.
Wonder rocketed to stardom at age 12 when he was signed to Motown Records as “Little Stevie Wonder.” Over nearly four decades, he has reinvigorated the music scene with his unique sound, produced nine #1 records and won a total of 22 Grammy Awards.
