International Pop sensation Taio Cruz comes to Australia this month
Promotional Visit – Feb 27 to Mar 1
Dubbed by critics “a toss-up between Babyface, Justin Timberlake and John Legend” Taio Cruz has sold a staggering 16 million singles worldwide, and has established himself as one of the world’s most sought after writer/producers as well as a genuine international superstar artist in his own right.
In between writing and recording his own material, Cruz has previously kept himself busy writing and producing for a host of incredible artists and songwriters including Usher, Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears and The Pussycat Dolls.
On the new album Taio has gathered a veritable who’s who of producers currently working in pop music. The list includes Dr. Luke and Cirkut – Ke$ha; Jessie J; Katy Perry; Miley Cyrus; Carl Falk – One Direction; Westlife, Rami Yacoub – N*SYNC; Backstreet Boys, Steve Angello – Tinie Tempah (‘Miami to Ibiza’); [remixed] Cheryl Cole ft Will.I.Am, RedOne – Lady Gaga (‘Just Dance’), Jimmy Joker – Usher (‘More’), Klas Åhlund – Britney Spears, Sebastian Ingrosso – Kid Sister; Kylie Minogue, Jason Gilbert – Eminem; Akon; Kardinal Offishall, Alan Nglish – Taio Cruz (‘Falling in Love’) and last but not least the all conquering David Guetta – Akon (‘Sexy Bitch’); Rihanna (‘Who’s That Chick’); Kelly Rowland (‘When Love Takes Over’)
If that isn’t enough, he is also the Founder and chief executive of Rokstarr Music in London. In September 2009, Cruz launched the brand Rokstarr, a fashion and accessories brand with a focus on sunglasses. High street type spin off label: Rok by Rokstarr is more affordable; making jeans and t-shirts.
Taio will arrive in Sydney for a promotional visit from February 27th – March 2 to promote his latest album TY.O which was released in December 2011. After his previous visit to Australia Taio Cruz was the first solo UK male artist ever to top the ARIA Singles Chart in a decade with his single Dynamite, the single reaching 5 x platinum sale in Australia. In fact Dynamite is the best selling single EVER on Island Def Jam in the US.
Taio Cruz is in the very top drawer of guaranteed hit maker/ writer/artist/producers currently working in pop music.
