Soul Legends The O'Jays and Gladys Knight Come to the Hulu Theater

originally published: 06/15/2022


(NEW YORK, NY) -- SJ Presents brings R&B legends The O’Jays to New York City for one last tour, Last Stop On The Love Train with special guest, the empress of soul  Gladys Knight, to the Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden. The O’Jays and Gladys Knight will perform their timeless hits on Friday, August 12 at 7:00pm.

Get ready for an extra soulful double bill as Gladys Knight and The O'Jays team up for a series of special performances. Each act has shaped the musical landscape of Soul and RnB in their own right; Gladys Knight has an astounding seven Grammys to her name while Rock and Roll Hall of Famers The O'Jays hit the top of the charts with the 1973 smash hit 'Love Train'. 

The trio were at the forefront of the Philly Soul Scene of the early 70's and have more Top Twenty Singles and Albums than you can count on two hands. After all these years, Eddie, Walter and Eric still have charm in spades and the voices to match! Speaking of still got it... At 70 years old, Ms Knight can still clear the rafters with her vocal chops. Some things just get better with age, and the Empress of Soul is no exception.
