Johnny Mathis Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

After 70 incredible year as an Internationally acclaimed singer, Johnny Mathis is regrettably retiring. He hope's you'll join him for his FINAL CONCERTS in 2025. Best-known for his supremely popular hits like “Chances Are," "Too Much, Too Little, Too Late," and "Misty”, Johnny has recorded 80 albums, 7 Christmas albums, and has sold millions of records worldwide. During his extensive career he has had 3 songs inducted into the GRAMMY Hall of Fame, achieved 50 Hits on Billboard’s Adult Contemporary Chart, and ranks as the all-time #6 album artist in the history of Billboard’s pop album charts. He has received 5 GRAMMY Nominations, and the GRAMMY Lifetime Achievement Award. His 1958 album “Johnny’s Greatest Hits” actually started the music industry tradition of “Greatest Hits” albums, which is noted in © GUINNESS BOOK OF WORLD RECORDS for a nearly 10 year run on the BILLBOARD Top Albums Chart! The 4th of seven children, John Royce Mathis was born on September 30, 1935. As a small boy, the family moved into a basement apartment on Post Street in San Francisco. At age 8, Johnny’s father Clem purchased an old upright piano for $25, which wouldn't fit through their apartment’s front door. So that evening, he stayed up to watch his father dismantle the piano, move the pieces into their small living room, and then reassemble it. It was there that he learned an appreciation of music from his father who taught him his first song, “My Blue Heaven”. Clem, who worked briefly as a musician back in Texas playing the piano & singing on stage, would continue to teach his son many songs and routines. Johnny had proven to be the most eager of the children to learn all about music. He sang in the church choir, school functions, community events, amateur shows in the San Francisco area. He was also a successful track & field athlete, and was offered a chance to compete in the U.S. Olympic Trials. In that same week Columbia Records called. So, on the advice de of his wonderfully supportive parents, Johnny chose to go to New York to record his first album. It was released on July 16, 1956, and a year later with his 1st TV appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show Johnny’s career was truly launched into stardom. In addition to all this Johnny & his music have appeared in numerous films & TV shows, including The Tonight Show, Silver Linings Playbook, Family Ties, Criminal Minds, Gremlins, Mad Men, and Close Encounters of the Third Kind, just to name a few. In 2017 he released his 78th studio album titled “Johnny Mathis Sings The Great NEW American Songbook”, and debuted his 2 “lost” albums - “I Love My Lady” produced by Nile Rodgers & Bernard Edwards of the pivotal group CHIC; “The Island” with Sergio Mendes. He also recorded new musical collaborations with other artists & solo projects up to & through the 2020s. Johnny is Columbia Records longest signed recording artist, The Voice Of Romance, and to fans of all ages The Voice Of Christmas! After 70 years as a Recording Artist, what’s next for Johnny? Looking forward to celebrating his 90th Birthday this September, possible new music for upcoming albums, and more time to relax & enjoy life in retirement from the road after this, HIS FINAL TOUR.
