Stevie Wonder 57, has mounted his first extended tour in 12 years. After nearly 4 decades of providing his fans with soul, funk, reggae and more, he is back on center stage with his daughter Aisha Morris, who is providing backup singing for her father.

The singer’s 2-1/2 hour show features an 11 piece band and a mix of Wonder’s hit songs. The singer performed in Charlotte earlier this week to an appreciative audience. A concert reviewer indicated that his voice is still in incredible shape.

Wonder, blind at infancy, signed on with Motown Records at age 12. He has recorded more than 30 top hits, has won 25 Grammy’s, won an Academy Award for Best Song and also won a Lifetime Achievement award and has been indicted into the Rock and Roll and Songwriters halls of fame. He has sold over 100 million albums.

Quite an impressive history. So why does he want to mount another tour? His mother passed away last year and the singer says that it is her spirit that has lead him back to the stage.
