Melissa Etheridge to headline at Pala Aug. 21

PALA – Pala Casino Spa Resort is excited to present one of rock music’s greatest female icons, Melissa Etheridge, Sunday, Aug. 21, performing live outdoors at the Starlight Theater, a spokesperson said.

Etheridge’s critically acclaimed eponymous debut album was certified double platinum, the spokesperson said. Her popularity built around such memorable songs as “Bring Me Some Water,” “No Souvenirs” and “Ain’t It Heavy” for which she won her first Grammy for Best Female Rock Vocal.

Etheridge hit her commercial and artistic stride with her fourth album, “Yes I Am,” featuring the massive hits “I’m the Only One” and “Come to My Window,” a song of longing that brought her a second Grammy.

The six-times platinum album spent more than two and a half years on the album chart.

Etheridge also is an Oscar winner for Best Original Song in 2007. In 2011, Melissa made her Broadway debut as St. Jimmy in Green Day’s rock opera, American Idiot, where she replaced Billie Joe Armstrong for one week, and received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

The Pala show will start at 6 p.m. This show is just one of the lineup of headliner and tribute concerts, which will be held at both the indoor Events Center and the outdoor Starlight Theater, with tickets on sale now for all events.
