Four-time, Grammy-nominated trio Wilson Phillips will headline the opening weekend of “Miami Beach Live!” on Saturday, March 5, performing number one hits like “Hold On,” “Release Me” and “You’re in Love.”
The performers are known for their sparkling harmonies and memorable appearance in the blockbuster motion picture, “Bridesmaids,” which brought the group a whole new generation of fans. Wilson Phillips also starred in the TV Guide Network reality show, “Wilson Phillips: Still Holding On.”
The Wilson Phillips album, “Dedicated,” pays tribute to the famous parents of band members — Chynna Phillips, Carnie Wilson and Wendy Wilson — with songs from The Beach Boys and The Mamas and Papas.
“Miami Beach Live!” will activate the Lummus Park area of South Beach and the beachfront between 10 to 13 streets each weekend in March starting on Friday, March 4 through Sunday, March 27. The performances cover a range of musical genres from dance to pop to international and symphonic Broadway.

Jon Batiste, this year’s most Grammy-nominated artist, will play prior to Morissette. The high-energy band leader on CBS’s “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” earned a whopping 11 Grammy nominations in seven fields, more than any other artist.
Colombian superstar Juanes, the chart-topping “Camisa Negra” Latin rocker is up on March 19.
