South Africa, February is the month of love, and the romance dial just got turned up a notch! John Legend is heading back to our shores in 2027, bringing his unmistakable voice and piano magic to SA's three main cities (Yes, Durbs, the circle is getting bigger!)
Big Concerts has confirmed that the 13-time Grammy Award-winning singer will bring The Muse Tour to Pretoria, Durban and Cape Town towards the end of February 2027, with performances spanning more than two decades of his legendary musical career.
You'll be adding back-up to Legend's hits like ‘All of Me’, ‘Ordinary People’ and ‘Tonight (Best You Ever Had)’, alongside fresh material from the latest album, Muse.
A new chapter for John Legend
Legend, whose genius is endorsed by his EGOT status (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony Award winner), released his new album ‘Muse' in October this year. It marks his first full-length collaboration with longtime friend Pharrell Williams, who co-wrote and produced the album. The record draws on everything from gospel and classic soul to Afrobeat, doo-wop and hip-hop, giving fans a taste of a new musical direction from an artist who has made a career out of timeless love songs.
