For the Empress of Soul, Gladys Knight, it’s been nearly four years since her last album was released, but that isn’t stopping the sale of Gladys Knight tickets. In fact, she remains one of the greats, just like Aretha Franklin, Diana Ross and Anita Baker. There’s no auto tune. There are no flashy outfits or pyrotechnics. There’s just Gladys Knight up on stage, sometimes accompanied by Bubba, Knight’s brother and the last remaining Pip.

Gladys Knight tickets are on sale now for two shows this March—one on the 11th in Palm Desert, Calif., and the other on the 27th in Hammond, Ind. She’s also got one performance scheduled on June 12 in Westbury, N.Y.
