The May 25 concert at Expo Square also features other 'Idol' contestants.
"American Idol" season 2 winner Ruben Studdard comes to Tulsa on May 25 for the Expo Square Pavilion concert, "Superstar Idols Live!"
Joining Studdard will be season 4 and 5 finalists Ace Young, Lisa Tucker, Will Maker, Jessica Sierra, Lindsey Cardinale and Mikalah Gordon.
Studdard, known to his fans as the Velvet Teddy Bear, boasts a silky R&B voice, which beat out "Idol" favorite Clay Aiken in 2003.
Studdard's debut album, "Soulful," hit No. 1 on the charts in 2003 and yielded the Grammy-nominated single "Superstar," which was composed by Tulsa legend Leon Russell and Bonnie Bramlett.
In 2004, Studdard released his gospel album "I Need an Angel," which promptly hit No. 1 on the gospel charts.
His latest R&B effort, "The Return," hit shelves in October 2006.
Regular tickets to the "Superstar Idols Live!" concert are on sale for $10, $20, $25 and $30. The $100 ticket includes a meet-and-greet backstage pass, autograph and after-party access.
