Aretha Franklin @ The Kimmel Center 12/29

The Queen of Soul herself is headed to Philadelphia this December for a show that you absolutely do not want to miss! Aretha Franklin will make her Kimmel Center debut on December 29th. Ms. Franklin will be singing some of her greatest hits as well as songs off of her latest release, Aretha Franklin Sings the Great Diva Classics. Grab your tickets now, because the good seats will not be around for long.

Aretha Franklin made waves recently when she went on The Late Show with David Letterman in support of her new album. She performed a fabulous rendition of Adele’s hit “Rolling in the Deep,” and proved without a shadow of a doubt that the Queen has still got it! Check out her performance here. And then immediately go and grab your tickets for her upcoming appearance at The Kimmel Center.

Aretha Franklin remains the most charted female in R&B history. The legend has won 18 Grammy Awards and sold over 75 million records, and thankfully shows no sign of slowing down. Her newest album, which was released in September is her 38th studio album to date. The album was instantly met with success, debuting at number 3 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, and number 1 on the Billboard R&B Album Chart. Aretha Franklin Sings the Great Diva Classics is Franklin’s 16th top 20 album. Her last was Who’s Zoomin’ Who? in 1989. With so many hits under her belt, it will be exciting to see what the Queen of Soul chooses to perform when she takes the stage at The Kimmel Center this December.
