ABOUT IL DIVO BY CANDLELIGHT:

For over 20 years, IL DIVO has embodied the power of music, brotherhood and artistic evolution. Since their debut in 2004, the iconic quartet, formed today with —Urs Bühler (tenor, Switzerland), Sébastien Izambard (tenor, France), David Miller (tenor, USA) and Steven LaBrie (baritone, USA)—have redefined classical crossover, captivating audiences worldwide with their breathtaking vocals and electrifying performances.

With over 30 million albums sold, 50 No. 1 hits and 160 Gold and Platinum certifications across 35 countries, their impact is undeniable. They have graced the world's grandest stages, from the Summer Olympics and FIFA World Cup to the Diamond Jubilee at Windsor and the Commander-in-Chief’s Ball. 

In 2021, IL DIVO faced an immense loss with the passing of co-founder Carlos Marín. Honoring his memory, the remaining members embarked on the Greatest Hits Tour in 2022, where baritone Steven LaBrie joined as a guest performer. A year later, Steven officially became a full-time member. 

With this new chapter, IL DIVO entered the studio in 2023 in Coconut Grove, FL, with producer Carlos Fernando Lopez to record their tenth album and first independent release, XX: 20th Anniversary Album [Il Divo Music/Thirty Tigers]. It marked a series of firsts—their first album with Steven, their first release under their own label, Il Divo Music, and their first time serving as Executive Producers, with Sébastien also taking on the role of Co-Arranger.

“When you listen to XX, we hope it takes you on a journey between modern music and opera,” says Sébastien. “Our voices remain true to who we are, but our approach has evolved, capturing a wide emotional spectrum.” 

“Whether you’ve been with us for 20 years, five years, or just a few hours, we want you to feel moved by the music,” adds Urs. It is this connection with fans that fuels IL DIVO’s next adventure.

Following two years of global promotion for XX: 20th Anniversary Album, IL DIVO will embark on their new world tour, IL DIVO BY CANDLELIGHT, in both Latin America and the U.S. 

“We want to perform in theaters, creating an intimate experience where fans feel part of the performance,” explains David. “We’ve challenged our creative team to design a show that is elegant and immersive yet never overshadowed by production.”
​
“We want the music to speak for itself,” adds Steven. 

IL DIVO BY CANDLELIGHT will take audiences on a journey through two decades of romance, heartache and joy, weaving their greatest musical triumphs into an unforgettable evening. In the U.S., they will be joined by Phoenix-based string trio Simply Three, who will also open the shows. ​
