Wilson Phillips to Kick Off ‘Miami Beach Live!’
— The famous trio is best known for the hit song, ‘Hold On’ —
Miami Beach, FL – Four-time, Grammy-nominated trio Wilson Phillips will headline the
opening weekend of “Miami Beach Live!” on Saturday, March 5, performing number one hits
like “Hold On,” “Release Me” and “You’re in Love.”
The performers are known for their sparkling harmonies and memorable appearance in the
blockbuster motion picture, “Bridesmaids,” which brought the group a whole new generation of
fans. Wilson Phillips also starred in the TV Guide Network reality show, “Wilson Phillips: Still
Holding On.”
The Wilson Phillips album, “Dedicated,” pays tribute to the famous parents of band members —
Chynna Phillips, Carnie Wilson and Wendy Wilson — with songs from The Beach Boys and
The Mamas and Papas.
“Miami Beach Live!” will activate the Lummus Park area of South Beach and the beachfront
between 10 to 13 streets each weekend in March starting on Friday, March 4 through Sunday,
March 27. The performances cover a range of musical genres from dance to pop to
international and symphonic Broadway. The entire month will feature daytime programming,
Friday night movies, Saturday evening concerts and Tasty Sundays with prix fixe menus at
some of Miami Beach’s best-known restaurants.
On March 12, seven-time Grammy Award-winning artist chartbuster Alanis Morissette, takes to
the stage of Miami Beach Live! The Canadian-born Morissette’s “Jagged Little Pill” album sold
30 million copies and became the highest-selling debut album worldwide.
Jon Batiste, this year’s most Grammy-nominated artist, will play prior to Morissette. The high-
energy band leader on CBS’s “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” earned a whopping 11
Grammy nominations in seven fields, more than any other artist.
Colombian superstar Juanes, the chart-topping “Camisa Negra” Latin rocker is up on March 19.
His debut album, “Fijate Bien,” brought Juanes the Latin Grammy for Best New Artist in a
musical career that catapulted him to global acclaim as one of the most important Latin music
artists in the world. Juanes has earned 20 Latin Grammy Awards.
Genre-bending orchestra Nu Deco Ensemble, young Cuban sensation Cimafunk and Brooklyn-
based Afrobeat band Antibalas will take the stage prior to Juanes.
We are committed to providing excellent public service and safety to all who live, work and play in our vibrant, tropical, historic
