Grammy Nominated Cameo to Bring Classic Funk Sounds to Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino March 2
Featuring the in-your-face stage presence and classic funk sounds that helped establish them as one of the music industry’s most influential groups, Cameo will debut at the renowned Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino this spring.
Cameo will begin their new residency March 2 at 7 p.m. and will be performing many of the hit records from their extensive catalogue. Over the past four decades, these songs have become the favorites of music lovers worldwide.
Founded by vocalist Larry Blackmon in the early 1970s, their debut album Cardiac Arrest featured the hit song “Rigor Mortis,” which climbed to number 33 on the Billboard Hot R&B Albums chart and established Cameo as a mainstay on the dance floor.
Beginning in 1979, the band released a string of gold-certified albums, including Secret Omen, Cameosis, which peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot R&B Albums chart, Feel Me, Knights of the Sound Table and Alligator Woman. Their success continued throughout the 1980s, with the release of the gold-certified albums She’s Strange, Single Life and Machismo, as well as their platinum-certified Word Up!, which climbed to number eight on the Billboard 200 chart, becoming the group’s most successful album to date and earned Cameo a Grammy nomination in 1987. With millions of records sold and a long list of hits, Cameo remained a trendsetter throughout their successful career, influencing a number of early R&B and hip-hop acts.
Cameo will perform Wednesday through Sunday at 7 p.m. at the Westgate Cabaret inside Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino.
Tickets are $69 for balcony seats, $79 for General Admission, $89 for VIP, and $110 for Meet & Greet tickets, which include a photo with Cameo. All ticket prices include taxes and fees and are available for purchase at the Westgate Box Office, online at WestgateVegas.com or by calling 800-222-5361.
