The Cheek to Cheek Tour is a co-headlining tour by American singers Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga in support of their album Cheek to Cheek (2014). The tour, which began with a two-night run at The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas, is scheduled to play a total of twenty two shows across Europe and North America during the first half of 2015, and is expected to expand as the tour progresses. Many of the tour's shows are a part of music festivals, such as the Ravinia Festival, the Copenhagen Jazz Festival, the North Sea Jazz Festival, and the Gent Jazz Festival.

Critical Response

Marc Graser from Variety called Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett as "perfect dance partners". He was impressed with Gaga and Bennett's potencial vocals, stating the concert "charmingly effective in showing off the talents of both artists on a stage simply decorated with crystal-studded curtains". Writing for Las Vegas Weekly, Mark Adams gave a positive review, saying "every performance was flawless". He didn't spare on praise, claiming their vocals and customs. Mark also noted that "the two stars might be decades apart in age, but they’re both at the top of their game now". He finished saying "it seems like an odd pairing. But anyone who has heard these two true professionals sing together knows that it just works". Ashley Lee of The Hollywood Reporter defined the concert as "an effortlessly powerful Bennett and a respectfully restrained Gaga pair for a decadent set of standards".
