Sting Live in Houston Performing Englishman in New York

Location: Houston, Tx, United States Date: February 8, 2014

In February 2014, Sting was in the midst of touring with the legendary Paul Simon, a collaboration that ignited excitement among fans. Prior to this Houston performance, Sting had recently released 'The Last Ship,' an album steeped in personal reflections and inspired by his childhood experiences in Newcastle. Its thematic depth stood in stark contrast to the upbeat feel of 'Englishman in New York,' a signature track often celebrated for its catchy melody and socially poignant lyrics. Interestingly, 'The Last Ship' features a narrative steeped in shipbuilding culture, which reflects Sting's roots, adding layers to his live performances. This concert marked the opening night of their tour, making it a memorable evening not only for the artists but also for the audience who came to witness this dynamic collaboration.
