Melanie C concert chronology

The Sea - Live is a tour by British singer Melanie C in support of her fifth studio album The Sea. The tour began in Cologne, Germany on 28 November 2011. The DVD of the tour was released on 27 February 2012 for a limited time and it was filmed at Gloria Theater (Cologne), Gruenspan (Hamburg) and C-Club (Berlin).

Production

Early June 2011, Melanie announced that she would be touring with her songs from her album The Sea.

In November 2011, Melanie's official website released the following: "With 5 albums under her belt, it's difficult for Melanie to decide which tracks to include on the setlist, that's why she needs your help. Melanie and the band have selected 5 oldies that they love to play live, but can't include on the setlist every night. So they have decided to give you the choice to pick 1 of the following 5 tracks you want to see live in concert. There will be a separate poll for each gig of the tour. The 5 track's are "Be the One", "Here It Comes Again", "If That Were Me", "Reason" and "Why". The song that gains the highest votes will be announced each night by Melanie, and then performed."

The same day, rehearsal footage was also released on her website. It was also announced that the London dates had sold out and a larger venue had to be hired because of ticket demand.
