My wife Sharyn handles the tours with us and manages the tour on the road (with ASH Entertainment), and then we spend our winters in Mazatl\u00e1n, Mexico.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Sept. 17 concert is a Surrey first for Halliday\u2019s award-winning tribute.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe fact that Alan has now retired from touring has brought even more life and demand for this show with dates booked for 2027 from April in Arizona to September In Minnesota as well as shows across North America,\u201d Halliday says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe energy is great (and) we bring all of the generational classics like Chattahoochee and Summertime Blues to Remember When and Livin\u2019 on Love to life right before their eyes and ears. This has been a long and wonderful road for a singer-songwriter, originally from a musical family in Nova Scotia, to the international stage as a tribute artist and now an internationally-recognized artist in his own right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Check <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thealanjacksonexperience.music\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">thealanjacksonexperience.music<\/a> for show details and tickets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tribute concerts coming to Surrey theatre include Alan Jackson, Adele, ABBA, more Published 9:45 am Monday, August 31,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":878559,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194299],"tags":[49,48,87674],"class_list":["post-878558","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-surrey","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-surrey"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/878558","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=878558"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/878558\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/878559"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=878558"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=878558"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=878558"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
