Gladys Knight with the Isley Brothers featuring Ronald and Ernie Isley will perform at the Fox Theatre on Saturday, May 14 at 8 p.m.

Since, she has gone on to record more than 38 albums and recently ended a critically-acclaimed four-year engagement at the Flamingo Hotel and Casino.

For over the course of nearly a half century of performing, the Isley Brothers distinguished history spanned not only two generations of siblings but also massive cultural shifts which heralded their music's transformation from gritty R&B to Motown soul to blistering funk. The Isley Brothers are most recognizable for their classic hits including "Shout," "Twist and Shout," "It's Your Thing," "Who's That Lady," and "The Pride".
