Gladys Knight On Tour 

The "Empress of Soul" is back. One of Motown's most iconic acts, Gladys Knight, returns to the big stage in 25 cities across North America for her 2022 tour. Although she's perhaps best known for her original rendition of the R&B classic "I Heard it Through the Grapevine (1967)," Knight has remained in the limelight as one of the all-time greats for the last 60 years. The seven-time Grammy award winner has won across three categories including Pop, R&B and Gospel, and has another 22 nominations spanning across five decades. Over her illustrious career, she has released 10 studio albums, with her debut album Miss Gladys Knight releasing in 1978, and her most recent work Where My Heart Belongs coming out in 2014. In 1996, her band Gladys Knight & the Pips was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Knight was also included on Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Singers of All Time list. Off the stage, Knight has authored two books, including a biography titled Each Line of Pain and Glory: My Life Story, and made various appearances on television and the big screen. Her most recent appearances came when she played herself in Coming 2 America in 2021 and when she wore the bee costume on "The Masked Singer" in 2019. 

Gladys Knight in Concert

Gladys Knight was born in Atlanta, Georgia to Merald Knight Sr. and Sarah Elizabeth on May 28, 1944. She has a sister (Brenda) and two brothers (Merald "Bubba" Jr. and David). As a child and into her teens, Knight sang in her local church choir where she refined her Motown chops. She had her first breakthrough into the spotlight at the age of 8 when she won Ted Mack's The Original Amateur Hour contest. Over the next few years, Knight and four of her family members (Bubba, Edward Patten, Langston George, and William Guest) formed a performing group to be called Gladys Knight & the Pips. After a successful run in the local Atlanta music scene, the group received a record deal with Brunswick Records in 1957 and began opening for legends in the music scene and influences on their style such as Sam Cooke. The group's first record to chart was in fact a cover of Johnny Otis' "Every Beat of My Heart," which made it into the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. Knight left the group in 1962 after a string of successful releases such as "Letter Full of Tears" to start a family with her husband Jimmy Newman. However, she returned to the group two years later and went on to critical success over the course of the next five decades.

    Celebrating mom's 94th

    by Shirley W. on 4/29/24Pechanga Resort Casino - Temecula

    I'm a huge Gladys Knight fan and have been too many of her concerts. My mom turned 94 and seeing Gladys was on her birthday wish list. We could not have been more pleased with this performance. It was one of my favorites. She had a great band, the backup singers were fabulous, and her song list was the best. She is a consistently wonderful performer. She's personable and gives 100% of her talent. The venue is great, not a bad seat anywhere, and it is very cozy. The staff at the venue were organized and over the top helpful and friendly.

    The most beautiful woman ever

    by dollyonline on 4/24/24Vibrant Music Hall - Waukee

    Gladys Knight never disappoints. She never hogs the spotlight. She shares the stage with her backup singers front & center. She showcases her band and is more than appreciative of all them. I hope to see more of her concerts ❤️

    Disappointed

    by Todd S. on 4/24/24Vibrant Music Hall - Waukee

    Band was tight, Gladys Knight should not have been out there. She needed help to and from the stage. She didn't keep the microphone up to her mouth so you could hear everything. She sang one line of the 2nd to the last song and must have forgotten the rest so the backup singers sang the rest. 65 minute show......disappointed.

    Wow

    by Debi on 4/22/24

    Saw Gladys tonight and she was amazing. I was in the first row which made it much more special being 6 feet away from the empress 🩷 A few of her songs made me cry and just the part of being right next to her is something I will never forget I wish it lasted longer than 55 minutes but I would do it again in a heartbeat ! Gladys you are a beauty 🩷🩷🩷. Thank you for a fabulous evening and please take care of your beautiful self 🙏

    Not as good as expected!

    by GsoTanger on 3/2/24Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts - Greensboro

    Only one hour and 10 minutes, granted no breaks or talking, but still not long enough. Her singing is okay but not like it used to be. Would not recommend!

    Live performances

    by YoungatHeart on 3/1/24Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts - Greensboro

    Gladys Knight did not disappoint. She gave her all. Wish more affordable refreshments were available. Got hot and thirsty. The staff was very helpful and seats, locations etc was easy to find. Can’t wait for a good country singer to come. Greensboro is on the rise!

    Hopefully just an off (K)night.

    by Robert on 3/1/24Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts - Greensboro

    Fifth time I’ve seen Gladys. Lifetime fan but this was a miss. Sound quality wasn’t good. Background was too loud and overpowered her. She didn’t seem well either. Forgot some lyrics. Little interaction with the audience. Guided off stage and no encore.

    A Wonderful Goodbye

    by Old Cit on 3/1/24Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts - Greensboro

    Her smile and infectious chuckle held the crowd. A relaxed Gladys Knight wowed her devoted audience and kept them in the palm of her hand. Gladys reacted well to the loving shouts from the floor. It was such a pity that the sound amplification muffled her words and the bass volume helped to drown out the remainder of the music. Such a pity to neither clearly hear the lyrics nor the fine music. What a lovely and talented lady at 79!

    Awesome and phenomenal

    by Rivia on 3/1/24Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts - Greensboro

    Gladys Knight was phenomenal. The lady still has it. Not a crack in her voice nowhere. I totally enjoyed the evening with my Dad who was reluctant to go at first. He had a wonderful time and boosted that it was better than he was expecting. I loved the show and am honored to see the living legend.

    The pipes still work!

    by Elvishasleftthebuilding on 3/1/24Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts - Greensboro

    Before attending the concert, I read some of her Setlist from last year to see what we might expect. From the number of hits she had to the number of songs she would sing, it was very apparent she wanted to give the audience a great show. She had excellent stage presents once she was led out of the dark into the light of the theater. While there were prompters on the stage for her to gaze at for lyrics, she rarely looked at them and used the length of the stage the entire night. She owned the audience from the minute she walked out of the dark and into the bright lights! She was beloved by her fans, and it energized her throughout the show. So glad to see that, while physically she is diminished in stature, her incredible voice never failed her.

    Gladys Knight

    by Maatu on 2/29/24Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium - Spartanburg

    I loved everything about this still amazing lady. I was so in awe of her & how youthful she looks. Had to leave early due to other obligations but she is forgiven for starting 30 mins late as when she finally came out she apologized & stated "It took me awhile to put my stockings on . Lol . Never saw her in person before but I knew her music thru my Mother playing her music thru my childhood . I am now 66 years young & my Mom passed in 2014. Thank you Gladys for coming to the Burg .

    Great to see a legend

    by Santa on 2/29/24Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium - Spartanburg

    She was great although 45 minutes late starting. The music somewhat over shadowed her voice
