ShareOne of the most popular recording artists and respected entertainers in history, Billy Joel will be performing a one-off show at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Friday 9 August 2024, joined by special guest Chris Isaak. This incredibly special show will be Billy Joel’s first in Cardiff and his only European performance in 2024.
New York’s quintessential son is one of the greatest musicians of our time. Joel’s songs have acted as personal and cultural touchstones for millions of people across five decades. His string of thirty-three top 40 hits, all of which Joel has written himself, began with 1973’s autobiographical Piano Man, written while Joel was playing in a Los Angeles lounge. In 2016, the Library of Congress selected Piano Man for preservation in the National Recording Registry for its ‘cultural, historic and artistic significance’. The hits have continued for almost five decades, with three of Joel’s Top 40 songs; It’s Still Rock And Roll To Me, Tell Her About It and We Didn’t Start The Fire, peaking at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 charts and twenty-three Grammy nominations awarded to Joel since he signed his first recording contract in 1972.
Joel is one of the most engaging and best-selling live performers of our time, with songs like Uptown Girl, Just The Way You Are, The Longest Time and Vienna – amongst countless others. He began Madison Square Garden’s first-ever music franchise in January 2014 that continues to this day, performing one show at The Garden each month. Joel’s record-breaking residency will end in July 2024, a little more than ten years after it first began, marking Joel’s 150th lifetime show which have all sold out at the venue. Joel’s MSG shows have re-defined the concept of residency; the scope and ambition of Joel’s residency, where he has played once a month at Madison Square Garden, is unprecedented.
Billy will be joined by special guest Chris Isaak. Over the course of his nearly forty-year career, platinum-selling and Grammy nominated singer and actor Chris Isaak has performed to sold-out crowds across the globe with his long time band Silvertone.
