Billy Joel is bringing his New York State of Mind to the UK in 2024.
There are few people today that haven't heard of Billy Joel. Born in Long Island, he started piano lessons and fell in love with classical music at a young age, and by the time his teenage years arrived, he was already playing in bands.
His first studio album Cold Spring Harbor was released in 1970, followed by Piano Man in 1974. His 1977 album The Stranger propelled him into the mainstream, with the track Just The Way You Are winning two Grammy awards for Record of the Year and Song of the Year.
Billy Joel's five decade-long career boasts hit after hit, making him the sixth best-selling recording artist of all time. His talent has also been recognised with 23 Grammy nominations and six Grammy awards, including the rare Grammy Legend award. Not only that, he also holds the record for the most performances at Madison Square Gardens – a whopping 134.
Now, Mr Long Island is making his way across the pond once more for just one evening in August 2024. He'll be visiting Cardiff along with his special guest Chris Isaak, marking his first visit to the Welsh capital.
