R&B Songstress Tinashe Held Official Album Release At TAO! PARTY!



Thursday afternoon, rapidly rising R&B songstress Tinashe was spotted at TAO Beach. Joined by a small group of close friends, the group soaked up the sun and enjoyed a few dishes from the TAO kitchen including the Buddha burger, wings and chicken Caesar salad.

Later that night, Tinashe hosted the official album release party for her debut studio album “Aquarius” at TAO Nightclub. After enjoying dinner at TAO Asian Bistro, she took over a VIP table upstairs inside the nightclub. She kicked off the celebration for the highly anticipated album with a performance of a few hits from it including “All Hands on Deck,” her newest single “Pretend” and the huge hit “2 On.” Following the performance, Tinashe returned to her table where she was surprised with a congratulatory custom cake featuring the cover of “Aquarius.” She spent the rest of her night dancing with friends to the sounds of DJ Five and graciously took time to pose for photos with adoring fans on the dance floor.

Art Exhibit To Take Place During Life Is Beautiful - ART-Tales

ROA Picture
Ensuring there will be no shortage of beauty inside the Life is Beautiful Festival footprint, organizers are now revealing the details of its gallery-style exhibits, set to take place inside the once iconic Western Hotel. In addition to its previously announced street art and mural program, festival managers have teamed up with art curator Patrick Duffy to present a multidisciplinary pop-up gallery entitled ART-Tales, available all three days (Oct 24-26) for festival attendees.

“To say we’ve transformed the vacant space of the Western Hotel is an understatement,” says Duffy, Las Vegas Art Museum president and chairman of the UNLV Fine Art Galleries. “Though we want to keep the feeling of that iconic bingo hall that this space once represented, our artists will present works that go beyond what you imagine when you think of Vegas, and challenge patrons to search themselves for universal themes and stories.”

Inside the ART-Tales gallery space will be a plethora of artistic mediums across multiple disciplines: from paintings to photography, sculpture, installations, poetry and mixed media. Featured inside the space are many local artists, including submissions from VAST space projects, Trifecta Gallery and students from Las Vegas Academy. Some highlights include:

·         California artist Eric Tillinghast, whose water-based work was featured in last year’s Art Odyssey, will return with a playful and interactive installation of water slides and kiddie pools, entitled “Freefall”.
·         Exploring themes of body and spirit, visual artist Linda Alterwitz - known for her use of scientific imagery- will create an installation juxtaposing large scale images of the Mojave Desert with medical scans of the human body.
·         Multidisciplinary local favorite Jerry Misko will explore the idea of a well-rounded, cyclical life with his installment of ancient and modern depictions of circular works.
·         Trifecta Gallery will bring along a collection of contemporary paintings and sculptures representing themes of religion, survival, heart, fear, dreams and growing up.
·         VAST Space Projects will present the works of nearly 50 artists, a number of them native to Nevada, through new mediums such as digital designs, printed matter, poetry and pop-ups.
·         Students from the Las Vegas Academy of the Arts will have the opportunity to enlighten guests with their visual interpretation of dreams; while they themselves fulfill their dream of showcasing artwork on a professional level.
·         Works from the following artists will also be presented: Audrey Barcio, Matthew Couper, Zak Ostrowski, Gina Quaranto, Camilla Quinn, Miguel Rodriguez, JK Russ, Jesse Smigel, and  Jevijoe Vitug.

Connecting the themes and overall experience of each of the dozens of participants, ART-Tales at The Western will be tucked within a cohesive space blanketed by an aura of light and sound which completes the sensory experience of the festival-goer. When stepping into this “gallery” – and the sub-galleries within – one will be transported to a stirring environment which asks the observer to fill in his or her answer to the question: “Life is ____.” ART-Tales will be available from opening to closing of the festival from October 24-26, 2014 inside the former Western Hotel on Fremont Street.

Headliner Frankie Moreno Final Performance At The Stratosphere! 12/20/14

The Stratosphere Casino, Hotel and Tower announces the final performance of Frankie Moreno Live at Stratosphere will be December 20, 2014 at 8 p.m. Dedicated fans, guests and everyone who loves a great live show is invited catch the final powerhouse performances at Stratosphere.

Moreno wows audiences and critics alike with energetic live performances in the Stratosphere Theater.  Since November 9, 2011, Frankie has achieved nearly 600 shows during his three-year tenure as Stratosphere headliner.  Moreno will leave the Stratosphere to pursue new artistic songwriting and performing opportunities across the country.

“Frankie Moreno is a true Las Vegas success story,” said Paul Hobson, Stratosphere Casino, Hotel & Tower general manager.  “We wish him nothing but success on his future endeavors.”

Moreno’s incredible talent earned Moreno “Best All-Around Performer” from the Las Vegas Review-Journal’s Best of Las Vegas Awards in 2012 and “Best Strip Headliner” from Las Vegas Weekly.

As part of his growing popularity, Moreno is also utilized by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) to help sell the Las Vegas brand to audiences across the country.

“The past three years have been an incredible ride and I’m thankful to the Stratosphere for the opportunity to entertain audiences night after night,” said Moreno.

Moreno’s national television appearance on ABC’s Dancing With The Stars in 2012 earned him additional acclaim.  He performed a medley, including his original song “Tangerine Honey”, to a dance performed and choreographed by Lacey Schwimmer during the primetime hit show.

“Frankie and his 10-piece band put on the kind of show that made Las Vegas showrooms famous,” said Matt Mascali, Vice President of Entertainment at Stratosphere Casino, Hotel & Tower.  “There is no denying their talent.”

Moreno also shares his talents with aspiring musicians.  As part of a partnership with the Las Vegas Academy, a magnet school in the Clark County School District focusing on visual and performing arts, Moreno and his song writing brothers held songwriting classes with students.  Some of the students ultimately performed their songs for audiences during Moreno’s shows at the Stratosphere Theater.
