Dubbed music's "King of Romance," Humperdinck first leaped onto the American pop charts with his smash hit "Release Me (And Let Me Love Again)." The song went to #1 in 11 countries, and was such a big hit in the United Kingdom that it managed to prevent The Beatles' two-sided hit "Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields Forever" from reaching the top of the charts.

The next decade brought such hits as "After the Lovin'," "Winter World Of Love," "Am I That Easy To Forget," "The Last Waltz," "There Goes My Everything," "Les Bicyclettes De Belsize" and "A Man Without Love." He has now recorded almost 80 albums, including many multi-language versions.

Engelbert has performed for Her Majesty the Queen, several U.S. Presidents and many heads of state. In 1978 he received a "Georgie Award" from the American Guild of Variety Artists recognizing him as "Entertainer of the Year," and in 1989 he was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Engelbert has a long history of giving back, and he has been involved with numerous charities in the U.S. and the U.K. In 2001, he received the "Spirit of Entertainment Award" from the John Wayne Cancer Institute.

Tickets for Engelbert Humperdinck are $60, $50, $35 and $25 and are available now at Spotlight29.com and at the Spotlight 29 Casino Gift Shop or by calling (800) 585-3737.
