Sugarland to air live-streamed concert from NYC Oct. 18 as part of the AmEx Unstaged series

Posted on Wed, Oct 13, 2010 at 6:20 AM

We are thrilled beyond measure to announce that Sugarland will be streaming a live concert on YouTube this Monday night, Oct. 18, as part of the AmEx Unstaged series. The show will air at 9pm ET/6pm PT on Sugarland's VEVO channel, straight from NYC's Best Buy Theater into your living room.

Our director for this unique broadcast is none other than Kenny Ortega, who helmed High School Musical and Michael Jackson's This Is It. He is also, of course, the man who choreographed Dirty Dancing (guh-gung), as well as Duckie's record store lip-synch number in Pretty in Pink -- a movie that's been a big inspiration around here lately.

We've got a whole bunch of tricks up our sleeve for this gig -- including some amazing special guests we'll announce later this week -- and the chance for YOU to be involved in the show! You'll have opportunities to tweet questions to the band, watch an online preshow with Jennifer and Kristian, vote for what encore we should play, and even switch between camera angles during the stream. Wanna get started tweetering about this RIGHT NOW? Use our special hashtag: #amexsugarland ... and stay tuned for info on how Sugarland and AmEx have teamed up to give away something colossally awesome to one lucky fan.

Watch the Sugarland Unstaged trailer on VEVO (or screen it below) to get yourself pumped, and then spread the word! Call your friends! Wake the neighbors! Feed the dog! It's a Sugarland party on Monday night -- followed by the release of our fourth album,The Incredible Machine, available all over the dang place this Tuesday, Oct. 19.

Check out this USA Today article for more information on the show and to read some great quotes from Kristian. And if you're in the NYC area and want to join us in person on the 18th, tickets are still available for American Express Cardmembers on Ticketmaster.com.

One last question: WHO'S EXCITED??
