Stevie Wonder launching fall tour in Pittsburgh

Stevie Wonder is kicking off a fall tour of several battleground states ahead of the Nov. 5 election, with the first night of the trek set for Pittsburgh.

Wonder, a 25-time Grammy winner, will play PPG Paints Arena on Oct. 8.

The tour, dubbed “Sing Your Song! As We Fix Our Nation’s Broken Heart,” has been dubbed a call for “joy over anger, kindness over recrimination, peace over war.”

Wonder, known for songs like “Isn’t She Lovely,” “Superstition” and “Higher Ground,” performed last month at the Democratic National Convention.

Other stops on the 10-show tour include Philadelphia, New York and Baltimore.

Tickets are on sale now at ticketmaster.com.
