"The incomparable Gladys Knight sharing the DPAC stage with The O'Jays will make an unforgettable night for concert-goers", says Sulaiman Mausi of The DOME Group, Inc. "I truly believe that this show will be one for the books."

"Gladys Knight joins a growing list of legends who have starred on the stage at DPAC. With the addition of The O'Jays, this concert promises to be the ultimate R&B event of the summer. DPAC was built to present these intimate evenings with your favorite all-time artists. Escape from the heat, and enjoy a night of timeless music," said Emily McLoughlin, Marketing Director for DPAC.

The great ones endure, and Gladys Knight and The O'Jays have long been two of the greatest. The labels 'icon' and 'legend' are often overused, but no truer words have been spoken about these two performers. Both are Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees, multiple Grammy® nominees and staunch humanitarians.

Eight-time Grammy® winner Gladys Knight has enjoyed #1 hits in pop, R&B and Adult Contemporary including her mega-hits "Midnight Train to Georgia" and "Neither One of Us (Wants to Be the First to Say Goodbye)." She has triumphed in film, television and live performance. Following her successful run competing on Dancing With the Stars, Knight found herself again on stage with the currently syndicated sitcom, The First Family, where she plays the mother of President William Johnson. Coming fall 2013, Knight will lend her musical expertise to Centric's original series Apollo Live.

The O'Jays--Eddie Levert, Sr., Walter Williams, Sr. and Eric Nolan Grant--have amassed 24 Top Ten smashes and 59 total charted songs and 50-plus years making such international hits as "Back Stabbers", "For The Love Of Money", "Love Train", "I Love Music" and "Use Ta Be My Girl." The O'Jays, who last performed at DPAC on January 15, 2012, are light years away from easing up on the gas. Like fine wine, The O'Jays just get better with time.
