Caryn Rose “What up, doe?!” With that traditional, very Detroit greeting, Michigan native Little Stevie Wonder brought his “Sing Your Song!
As We Fix Our Nation’s Broken Heart” tour to Little Caesar’s Arena in the Motor City on Tuesday night. Escorted onstage by his daughter Aisha (of “Isn’t She Lovely” fame) and son Kailand, he continued: “This is a celebration — there’s so much I want to say, and so much I want to sing, and so much I want you all to sing.” He wasn’t exaggerating on the latter.
Accompanied by a versatile backing band of no less than 30 musicians, Wonder — clad in demin and a black Detroit Tigers cap — soared through his extensive repertoire, showing off his formidable abilities as a musician as well as his love for his audience.
The entire night was a joyful singalong throughout the almost-sold-out arena, from the front rows to the cheap seats. The set was similar to other shows on the 11-date, pre-election tour, which kicked off October 8 in Pittsburgh and will finish November 2 in Chicago, but it was clear that Wonder was keeping the band on their toes — it’s hard to turn 30 musicians on a dime (okay, 20 if you deduct the string section), whether you’re changing arrangements or ending early.
