From 2018-19, Anita Baker embarked on a sprawling Farewell Tour all over North America.
It seemed like she had officially retired from performing.
Thankfully, just four short years later, the eight-time Grammy winner is back on the road for her upcoming 12-concert ‘The Songstress Tour.’
This time around, she’ll be hitting Newark, NJ’s Prudential Center on May 10, Long Island, NY’s UBS Arena on May 12 and Atlantic City, NJ’s Hard Rock Hotel and Casino on Nov. 24.
And if you want to see the “Sweet Love” singer live, you can still scoop up affordable last-minute tickets.
How affordable?
Well, at the time of publication, we found some tickets going for as low as $33 before fees on Vivid Seats.
Now, that’s a bargain.
