Christopher Cross at Flagstar at Westbury Music Fair

Christopher Cross struck gold instantly with his debut self-titled album. He won five Grammy Awards, including the four most significant awards, which are Record of the Year for the song "Sailing," Album of the Year, Song of the Year again for "Sailing," and Best New Artist. He is the first artist to achieve such an accolade. Not even a year after his first album, he worked with Burt Bacharach, writing "Arthur's Theme" for the movie "Arthur." The theme won the Academy Award for Best Song. His second album, "Another Page," also became a massive hit. The songs "All Right," "No Time for Talk," and "Think of Laura" are especially popular. He earned a Gold Certification for "Another Page" In 1984, he composed and sang the song "A Chance For Heaven" for the 1984 Summer Olympics. In the 40 years of his career, he has sold more than 10 million albums and has multiple nominations and awards from the Grammys, Emmys, and Oscars.

In 2020, the artist was one of the first celebrities to contract COVID-19, derailing his plans to celebrate his career reaching its 4th decade. He suffered temporary paralysis leading to his having difficulty walking. Finally, in 2021, the anniversary tour commenced. Continuing his tour last year, the multi-Grammy-winning artist is back on the road. Having recovered from the effects of COVID, his trek will reach more cities this summer.
