Bobby Brown, Johnny Gill, Ralph Trevant to perform in Knoxville
New Edition front men unite for Summit Tour
The Summit Tour, which brings together former New Edition front men Bobby Brown, Johnny Gill and Ralph Tresvant will stop in Knoxville at 8 p.m. Friday, April 3, at the Civic Auditorium.
New Edition formed in 1978 in Boston and hit pay dirt in 1983 with the album and single "Candy Girl," which became a favorite on MTV. The group followed with more than a decade of hits. Brown and Tresvant were in the original quintet, sharing lead vocals. Brown left the band in 1986 for a solo career and was replaced by Johnny Gill. Gill later followed Brown in having a successful solo career.
Tickets for the show will be $55 and $35 and go on sale Friday at Tickets Unlimited outlets.
