Grammy Award-Winning Rock & Roll Hall of Fame MemberA singer of some of the biggest hits in the history of American popular music, Darlene Love can now claim to have a name that’s as familiar as her voice.
Since the late 1950s, she has sung lead on hits such as the Crystals‘ “He’s a Rebel” and “He’s Sure the Boy I Love” and backup on classics like the Ronettes‘ “Baby, I Love You.” Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, The Beach Boys and Sam Cooke were just a few of the artists who benefited greatly from her power and versatility as a vocalist.
Through the ‘80s and ‘90s, famous fans like Steven Van Zandt, and Bette Midler would give Love more chances to take center stage – even having an annual performance of her holiday classic “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)” on Late Night with David Letterman. But it wasn’t until the success of Twenty Feet From Stardom that Love truly received the recognition she long deserved. Now a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Love and her nine-piece backing band show audiences all that she can do with energetic performances of songs from throughout her career.
“One of the greatest singers of all time.” – Rolling Stone
“Darlene is a force of nature…a voice that comes along once in a generation.” – Steven Van Zandt
“Darlene Love’s thunderbolt voice is as embedded in the history of Rock & Roll as Eric Calpton’s guitar or Bob Dylan’s lyrics.” – The New York Times
