Anita Baker Returns To UK For First Time In 13 Years To Perform One-Off Farewell ConcertEight-time Grammy-winning soul star Anita Baker will perform in the
UK for the first time in 13 years this summer at an exclusive show at
the Love Supreme Jazz Festival in East Sussex.
The renowned vocalist, whose iconic songs such as ‘Sweet Love’,
‘Giving You The Best That I Got’ and ‘Caught Up In The Rapture’ sold
over 15 million copies and propelled her to international superstardom
in the 1980s, will headline Love Supreme on Saturday, July 4th.
The concert carries extra significance as the show forms part of Baker’s Farewell Tour and will be her last ever UK concert.
Discussing the performance, Anita Baker stated, “I’m so happy to be
returning to the UK after all this time...it’s going to be a magical
experience reconnecting with my UK fans and doing it all again one last
time at Love Supreme this summer!”
Baker joins this year’s Love Supreme line-up alongside
multi-million-selling R&B outfit TLC, who come to the UK to
celebrate the 25th anniversary of their seminal album CrazySexyCool,
‘70s soul stars The Isley Brothers, who return to the UK for the first
time in over 10 years, Brazilian bossa nova legend Sergio Mendes, who
performs his only UK festival show of the year and master US saxophonist
