Palace Resorts has announced that seven-time Grammy-Award winning singer and entertainer, Usher, in concert at the Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort tonight, December 29, 2012.

The leader in "awe-inclusive" vacation experiences and world-class entertainment, Palace Resorts will welcome American R&B recording artist Usher, following live performances by International Artists Shakira, Jon Secada, Enrique Iglesias and the Broadway hit, Cirque Dreams Jungle Fantasy, Palace Resorts has elevated the traditional all-inclusive experience by offering guests the opportunity to Witness world-renowned live entertainment for an unforgettable vacation.

Usher recently released his eagerly-anticipated seventh album LOOKING 4 MYSELF this past summer. The genre-defying lead single from LOOKING 4 MYSELF entitled "Climax," was written by Usher Raymond along with co-writers Redd Stylez, Ariel Rechtshaid, and Diplo, who also produced the single. "Climax" has received exceptional critical acclaim.

Usher has been ranked by the RIAA as one of the best-selling artists in American music history. The singer, songwriter, dancer and actor rose to fame in the late 1990s with the release of his second album My Way, which spawned his first Billboard Hot 100 number-one hit, "Nice & Slow." The concert at Moon Palace will feature songs from Usher's latest studio album, including popular singles: "Climax," "Scream," and "Lemme See," featuring rapper Rick Ross. Looking 4 Myself is the follow-up to Usher's Grammy Award-winning album Raymond v. Raymond.
