“National Treasure”, “Living Legend”, “One of a Kind”. These descriptions get thrown around a lot when describing artists, but this time it is well warranted.

The Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin, will perform at the Santa Barbara Bowl on August 6 at 7:00 PM. Tickets go on sale Saturday, March 7 at 11 AM.

Her many countless classics include “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “Chain Of Fools,” “I Never Loved A Man (The Way I Love You)”; her own compositions “Think,” “Daydreaming” and “Call Me”; her definitive versions of “Respect” and “I Say A Little Prayer”; and global hits like “Freeway Of Love,” “Jump To It,” “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me),” her worldwide chart-topping duet with George Michael, and “A Rose Is Still A Rose.”

The recipient of the U.S.A.’s highest civilian honor, The Presidential Medal Of Freedom, an eighteen (and counting) Grammy Award winner – the most recent of which was for Best Gospel Performance for “Never Gonna Break My Faith” with Mary J. Blige in 2008 - a Grammy Lifetime Achievement and Grammy Living Legend awardee, Aretha Franklin’s powerful, distinctive gospel-honed vocal style has influenced countless singers across multi-generations, justifiably earning her Rolling Stone magazine’s No. 1 placing on the list of “The Greatest Singers Of All Time.”

Don’t miss your chance to see Aretha Franklin at the Santa Barbara Bowl on August 6. Again tickets go on sale Saturday, March 7 at 11 AM, grab all the details here.
