Jeff Lynne’s ELO will return to the road summer 2019, play Atlanta

Jeff Lynne’s ELO will return to the road summer 2019.

Jeff Lynne’s ELO will return to the road summer 2019.

After Jeff Lynne’s ELO played a brief tour this summer – their first in North American since 1981 - the responses were rapturous (the words “flawless” and “visually stunning” were often invoked).

Lynne will bring his live production back to the masses in summer 2019 and this time, Atlanta is on the itinerary (ELO last played here at The Omni in 1981).

Lynne’s ELO will play State Farm Arena on July 5. Tickets, priced at $49.50-$179.50, will go on sale at 10 a.m. Oct. 29 via www.livenation.com. American Express card members will have access to a pre-sale from 10 a.m. Oct. 24 through 10 p.m. Oct. 28.

Along with fronting ELO (“Telephone Line,” “Don’t Bring Me Down,” “Mr. Blue Sky” and a few dozen more hits), Lynne is revered for his work as a producer and also a co-founder and member of The Traveling Wilburys.
