The singer-songwriter of “Tryin’ to Get the Feeling Again” and the voice behind “Got to Believe in Magic” returns to Burbank on Nov. 1 for an intimate anniversary show celebrating his landmark Arista album
BURBANK, CA – For more than five decades, David Pomeranz has given the world songs that feel both intimate and universal. On Saturday, November 1, 2025, the acclaimed singer-songwriter will return to Los Angeles for a one-night concert commemorating the 50th anniversary of his Arista album It’s in Every One of Us.
The celebration will be held at the Colony Theatre in Burbank, with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. and the performance beginning at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are available via Eventbrite under Upward Spiral Entertainment Inc.
From Brooklyn to international acclaim
Born and raised in New York, Pomeranz grew up immersed in music. By his teens, he was writing and recording, quickly gaining recognition for his powerful voice and gift for crafting melodies that spoke to everyday emotions. His influences ranged from Broadway cast albums to the Beatles, and those sensibilities would shape his own songwriting style.
By the early 1970s, Pomeranz had signed with Decca Records before moving to Arista Records under the guidance of Clive Davis. It was there that he recorded It’s in Every One of Us, the album that would launch him into international recognition.
Early in his career, Pomeranz also toured as the opening act for artists such as Rod Stewart and Billy Joel, gaining exposure that introduced his voice and songs to wider audiences.
A songwriter behind the hits
The album featured Pomeranz’s original versions of three songs that became classics: “Tryin’ to Get the Feeling Again,” “If You Walked Away,” and the title track. Barry Manilow’s cover of “Tryin’ to Get the Feeling Again” climbed into the Billboard Top 10 in 1976 and topped the Adult Contemporary chart, introducing Pomeranz’s work to a global audience.
It’s in Every One of Us was embraced worldwide, later recorded and performed by John Denver, Freddie Mercury, and many others.
His credits extend far beyond his own voice. Over the years, Pomeranz’s songs have been recorded by artists as varied as Kenny Rogers, Bette Midler, Missy Elliott, and The Carpenters. He also co-wrote the score for Little Tramp, a West End musical based on the life of Charlie Chaplin, further proving his versatility as a composer.
An intimate celebration
For the November concert, Pomeranz chose the Colony Theatre in Burbank, a venue known for its warmth and intimacy. “We wanted it to feel like a party in someone’s home,” he explained in announcing the event. “Some of the original personnel from the album will be attending, which makes it even more special.”
Most meaningful for Pomeranz, however, is the chance to reconnect with his Filipino fans, who have embraced him as one of their own for decades.
“I especially look forward to sharing this event with my Filipino friends and fans, near and dear to me, because, aside from hearing many of the songs they know and love, they will also see an additional side of my music that I think will surprise and delight them.”
With its mix of timeless songs and new surprises, the evening will celebrate not only a milestone album but also the enduring bond between an artist and his audiences.
A career of endurance
Pomeranz’s career spans more than music charts. He has worked across albums, film, television, and theater, and his projects have collectively earned 22 platinum and 18 gold albums, with over 40 million records sold worldwide. Billboard Magazine described him as “one of our finer voices,” a reputation he has upheld through decades of performances around the globe.
Beyond pop, his work has extended into television soundtracks and inspirational projects that have made his voice a sought-after presence in faith-based music. His compositions have reached Broadway and the West End, expanding his artistry into theater. Moving seamlessly between pop, stage, and inspirational music, he has remained a relevant figure in an ever-changing industry.
A Filipino connection
Perhaps nowhere has Pomeranz’s music resonated more than in the Philippines. His songs became household staples during the 1980s and 1990s, with “King and Queen of Hearts” and “Got to Believe in Magic” becoming anthems for Filipino fans.
The latter, written by Charles Fox and Stephen Geyer and originally performed by Pomeranz for the 1982 film Zapped!, found new life in 2002 when Filipino band Side A recorded it for the hit film Got 2 Believe starring Claudine Barretto and Rico Yan. The movie’s success introduced the song, and Pomeranz’s voice, to a new generation of Filipino listeners.
Through countless tours across Manila and beyond, Pomeranz has built a loyal following. That connection is part of a broader story of global touring, with performances across Asia, Europe, and the United States. Wherever he sings, audiences connect with the hope and emotion in his musi
A voice that endures
As David Pomeranz takes the stage in Burbank this November, the evening will be more than a nostalgic revisiting of songs. It will be a celebration of a career that has spanned five decades, a tribute to the music that has traveled across borders, and a moment of gratitude for the audiences, especially Filipino fans, who have carried his songs in their hearts.
