Hip-hop and roots reggae artist Michael Franti & Spearhead return to the Amphitheatre with guest Bombargo as they bring their Work Hard & Be Nice Tour to St. Augustine on Saturday, May 8, 2020.
Acclaimed artist and humanitarian and “Say Hey (I Love You)” singer, Michael Franti radiates positivity on stage and off. AXS notes, “Michael Franti & Spearhead are on a mission: to make the world a more positive place, one note at a time.” With that mission in mind, Franti takes to main stages in 90-cities with support act Bombargo.
USA Today proclaims Franti is “an artist who’s clearly interested in making deep connections with listeners, speaking powerfully through his music and living by his mantra that ‘there is no one in the world that you wouldn’t love if you knew their story.’”
Of the tour’s moniker, Franti explains, “On last year’s tour, I made a tee shirt that said, ‘Work Hard & Be Nice To People’. I feel in this world, we are constantly trying to divide the human family into groups that we can refer to as ‘other’. It’s important to stand up for the values of embracing our differences, being our authentic selves and accepting others for being themselves as well. Sometimes that’s hard work. Somewhere along the way, our society seems to have forgotten that working hard and being kind to other people, regardless of what their story or beliefs are, is still important. Actually, it’s more important than ever.”
