Legendary soul songstress Dionne Warwick is performing in Israel in May!
Famous for some all-time classics like Walk On By and Anyone Who Had A Heart, and winner of 5 Grammy awards, she’ll be here for one concert at the Menora Mivtachim Arena in South Tel Aviv (formerly known as the Nokia Arena).
Some numbers just to impress you: she has been performing for over 50 years now, with over 75 hit singles and over 100 million records sold. Dionne is second only to Aretha Franklin as the most-charted female vocalist of all time, with 69 of Warwick’s singles making the Billboard Hot 100 between 1962 and 1998. She has also been a United Nations Global Ambassador for the Food and Agriculture Organization, and a United States Ambassador of Health. Impressive stuff we have to say!
Now 75, she still has a voice to reckon with, but if you were wondering why she is still on the road, the fact that she went bankrupt two years ago might have something to do with it…
Tickets start at 244 shekels, call *8780 for more details.
Here’s a taste of true classic soulfulness from Dionne…
