Gladys Knight will return to Australia and New Zealand in 2024 for a final tour.
The soul legend was last in Australia in February 2020, just before the Covid lockdowns shut down the world.
Gladys said in a statement, “I’m so grateful to be visiting these beautiful places again and be able to share my music with the fans who are so hospitable and embrace us with open arms. The spirit and soul brought to our performances by these amazing audiences is unmatched the world over.”
Gladys Knight formed her band The Pips in 1952 with her brother Merald (Bubba), sister Brenda and cousins Eleanor and William. They recorded their first record in 1957. The 1961 single ‘Every Beat Of My Heart’ was their first hit.
In 1966 the group signed to Motown Records. They had their first Motown hit with ‘I Heard In Through The Grapevine’, written for them by Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong, in 1967.
The biggest hit for Gladys Knight and the Pips was ‘Midnight Train To Georgia’ in 1973.
