Some artists takes at least a decade in the industry before announcing their Sin City Residency.

Not more than a year since their formation, R&B Superduo Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak, now known as Sonic Silk, is taking over Las Vegas in February 2022.

Mars shared the news on Twitter Wednesday morning that their Las Vegas performance, "An Evening With Silk Sonic", is the sexiest party of the year.

The Park MGM's 5,200-seat theater is presently scheduled to host 13 shows, with the Live Nation presale kicking out at 1 p.m. ET today.

Tickets for the Park MGM show go on sale to the general public at 1 p.m. ET on Friday, January 21, 2022.

As part of the venue's Health Check criteria to prevent exposure to COVID-19, all attendees must wear masks and must present evidence of complete vaccination, a negative COVID-19 test prior to attending the event, or a rapid on-site COVID test.

"THE TERMS ARE LOCKED AND VEGAS MIGHT NOT EVER BE THE SAME JACK!! YOU'RE INVITED TO THE HOTTEST SHOW IN SIN CITY!".Paak shared on his Instagram account.

The Las Vegas residency of the duo marks the first set of gigs to support their debut studio album, "An Evening With Silk Sonic".
