Sting

At the time of this live recording on March 14, 2013, Sting was riding high on the success of his album "The Last Ship," which premiered later that same year. This album, inspired by his childhood in Newcastle and his love for the sea, marked a significant return to his roots after a series of pop-inflected releases. Interestingly, in the spring of 2013, he was also on his "Back to Bass" tour, which aimed to revisit the classic sound of his early work with The Police and his solo hits. This concert in Abu Dhabi showcased not only his impressive catalog but also marked a time when he was blending old and new influences, captivating fans with his storytelling and magnetic stage presence. The venue, du Arena, is renowned for its vibrant atmosphere, which certainly added to the magic of the evening.
