Fallsview Casino Press Release

It may only just be the start of fall, but we are already thinking about spring – with the powerhouse voices of Melissa Etheridge and Joss Stone arriving April 23, 2025, at the OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino. The showtime is 7 p.m. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, Oct. 4, through ticketmaster.ca.

“Melissa Etheridge and Joss Stone are known for their soulful voices and memorable hit songs,” said Cathy Price, vice president of marketing, Niagara Casinos. “From pop, rock, soul and more – the music catalog of these incredible artists is massive, and we couldn’t be more excited to have them both on the stage in April.”

The American rock scene was forever changed in 1988 when Melissa Etheridge stormed into history with the release of her critically acclaimed self-titled debut album. For several years, her popularity grew around such memorable originals as "Bring Me Some Water," "No Souvenirs" and "Ain't It Heavy," for which she won a Grammy in 1992. Etheridge hit her commercial and artistic stride with her fourth album, “Yes I Am” (1993). The collection featured the massive hits "I'm the Only One" and "Come to My Window," a searing song of longing. In 1995, Etheridge issued her highest-charting album, “Your Little Secret,” which was distinguished by the hit single, "I Want to Come Over." Known for her confessional lyrics and raspy, smoky vocals, Etheridge has remained one of America's favorite female singers for more than two decades.

A double Brit Award- and Grammy-winning artist, Joss Stone is without question among the most iconic soul singers of the modern era, a preternaturally gifted vocalist and songwriter whose remarkable career now spans two decades with no sign of slowing down. Since releasing her star-making critically acclaimed debut album, “The Soul Sessions,” in 2003, at age 16, she has released nine studio albums that have sold over 15 million copies worldwide.

Stone has been known to experiment with different styles in her own work as well, and her albums feature an exciting patchwork of various influences, creating a catalog characterized by the fusion of her powerhouse soul vocals with reggae, world music, and hip-hop soundscapes. Hit songs include “Tell Me ‘Bout It,” “Don’t Cha Wanna Ride” and “You Had Me.”
