(LAS VEGAS, NV) -- Following the success of three previous live stream concerts from The Space in Las Vegas, Tony and Grammy Award-winner John Lloyd Young returns on Friday, February 12 with John Lloyd Young’s Vegas Valentine, an intimate and unforgettable evening of romantic classics and beloved Jersey Boys favorites that will offer an up-close and personal experience to be enjoyed with family and friends safely from home. The 75 minute live streamed pay-per-view concert will begin at 9:00pm EST and then be available OnDemand for one week following the live event.

In John Lloyd Young's Vegas Valentine, Young will sing classic, swoon-worthy ballads from Unchained Melody to Since I Fell for You. With music director Tommy Faragher on piano, other beloved songs will include Only You to My Prayer, My Eyes Adored You, and Can't Take My Eyes Off You. Afterward, viewers are invited to a post-show virtual Valentine’s date, where over a bottle of wine, Young will have one-on-one conversations with callers chosen from questions they've submitted in advance, capped off with a grand-finale performance of a brand-new cover of one of the most beloved classic love songs of all time.
“I’ve been giving Valentine’s concerts for the good part of a decade,” said Young. “It’s a specialty and a tradition for me and the pandemic isn’t going to stop that. I look forward to having a special date night on February 12 with all my music-loving fans.”
