John Tesh: Live in Concert!

Two performances only! Co-presented with WILT Sunny 104.5! A graduate of NCSU in Raleigh, John Tesh first worked as a news anchor for Durham’s WTVD during his early broadcasting career, later becoming a household name as co-host of TV’s Entertainment Tonight for ten years. He was the first American broadcaster to cover the Tour de France, and later anchored the 1992 and 1996 Olympics. Long interested in music but never having performed professionally, Tesh made his first tour as a keyboardist with Yanni in 1988. In 1994, he performed for his first “Live at Red Rocks” concert at the majestic amphitheatre in Denver. In an impressive career that spans more than 25 years, John Tesh has become known worldwide as a leading figure in the entertainment and broadcasting industries. Now, with one of the most successful syndicated radio shows in America, he has conquered yet another media format. With three gold albums and a career that includes six Emmys, two Grammy nominations, an Associated Press Award for investigative journalism, a Keyboard Magazine Award, several number one radio hits, five hit PBS specials and two tours as an Olympic announcer/composer, it's obvious that Tesh has a drive for versatility. His book, Intelligence for Your Life: Powerful Lessons for Personal Growth has spent time on the New York Times, USA Today, Publisher's Weekly, Amazon.com and Wall Street Journal best-seller lists. John's Greatest Hits Live Volume One CD/DVD combo was released earlier this year.
