CONGRATULATIONS PHILLIP!!!!
To thank fans for their support Phillips is re-releasing his debut album to include three additional live tracks. Live versions of “Gone, Gone, Gone,” “Where We Came From” and “Man on the Moon” will join the live version of his hit single “Home” that is on the original album. This fan edition of The World From the Side of the Moon is due November 19th, on the one-year anniversary of the album’s original release. Fans can also purchase the three tracks as a separate set titled Phillip Philips: Live. The new live songs were recorded during stops on John Mayer’s Born and Raised tour.
The World From the Side of the Moon’s first two singles “Home” and “Gone, Gone, Gone” have hit Number One on Billboard’s Adult Contemporary chart, putting Phillips in the company of only eight other male solo artists who have achieved the same feat. “Home” sees sales of over 4.7 million making it the most successful single of any American Idol winner. The album’s third single, “Where We Came From” is one of nine tracks on the album Phillips wrote or co-wrote.

Phillip celebrated his 23rd birthday in Brazil on September 20th, and we had prepared a special surprise for him. A few minutes before he hit the ‘Rock in Rio’ stage, the RIR team and I entered backstage with a cake and sang ‘Happy Birthday’ to him.
I’d like to thank the RIR staff that helped make this happen. I’m sure Phillip loved the surprise.
After that, they brought me to watch Phillip’s show from a very special place on the stage, it was unforgettable.
Check out the video and photos below.

Phillip Phillips performed in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for the Rock in Rio festival on September 21, 2013. He charmed the crowd with his distinctive voice, passion, energy, and remarkable musicianship.
This was Phillips’ first time visiting Brazil, and he got to perform on the same stage as Bruce Springsteen and John Mayer that night. He is currently touring with Mayer for the “Born and Raised” tour.
He began the show with “Get Up, Get Down” and continued with the songs “Man on the Moon”, “Drive Me” and “Gone Gone Gone”, all off his album ‘The World From the Side of the Moon’ which were very well received by the crowd, with lots of applause and fans singing along. During as well as between songs, he showed that he is an amazing instrumentalist on his guitar, as well as showcasing his talented band members throughout the set.
There were two moments of the night that received the greatest response from the crowd. The first was when he performed ‘Thriller’, which brought a flashback to them of him performing it during his American Idol audition. He ended his set with the grand finale of ‘Home’, his most successful single to date. The crowd chanted the anthem of ‘Home’ loud and clear, closing his performance with great positive energy.
Check out performances from his hour long set below!
