Briefly: Elton John, Sting, Ronald Isley, Robbie Fulks
Elton John 's appearance at the official Conde Nast Media Group Fashion Rocks pre-party will be webcast at AT&T Blue Room, an online music portal.
According to a press release, John's performance--to stream beginning Sept. 10 at attblueroom.com--will include songs from his upcoming album "The Captain and the Kid," as well as a selection of his greatest hits.
New York City is among the three cities where Sting will perform next month to support his forthcoming album, "Songs From the Labyrinth," which hits shelves Oct. 10.
Other cities on the itinerary will be London and Berlin, according to Sting's website.
All three shows will take place at small venues. The London gig is set for Oct. 4 at LSO St. Luke's Church, but dates and locations for the Berlin and New York shows haven't been announced.
"Songs From the Labyrinth" is an album of songs by 16th century composer John Dowland, performed entirely on the lute.
Isley Brothers leader Ronald Isley, who was convicted last year of five counts of tax evasion, has been sentenced to three years and one month in prison.
The 65-year-old singer was also ordered to pay more than $3 million in back taxes to the IRS.
Country artist Robbie Fulks' Sunday (9/3) appearance in Champaign, IL, was one of two shows to be recorded for an upcoming live album; the second will be Nov. 15 in Chicago.
According to a press release, the performances will consist of previously unreleased material and fan favorites.
