September 10 - Patti LaBelle
Tennessee Theatre | 604 s gay st, Knoxville | 7:00 pm
Legendary R&B belter Patti LaBelle came of age at a time when the term “diva” wasn’t used loosely — as a tireless performer and industry veteran, Ms. LaBelle earned her diva designation with hard work and pure, raw talent. Beloved by fans for her fiery live performances and sassy wit, Patti proved she was still in top form on her 2012/13 50th Anniversary Tour, consistently bringing down the house with electrifying renditions of classics like “Lady Marmalade” and “New Attitude.” An indefatigable touring presence, Patti serves up more diva realness in 2014 with several highly anticipated appearances.
