14 July 2022 - 0 Comments

An artist who requires little introduction, Billy Joel is one of the biggest concert draws in the world. Having sold over 160 million records and scoring six Grammy® wins from 23 nominations, Joel ranks as one of the most popular and respected entertainers in history – the sixth best-selling recording artist of all time, and the third best-selling solo artist.

In New Zealand Billy Joel has amassed an impressive 57 million streams, four number one albums and ten Top 10 albums. 1983’s An Innocent Man spent a phenomenal 83 consecutive weeks on the New Zealand album chart and 1977’s The Stranger, (certified 4 x Platinum) 77 weeks.

Billy Joel’s anthology has soundtracked the lives of millions, his impeccable musicianship and transcendent songs recognised worldwide. Inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame in 1999, Joel received The Kennedy Center Honors (one of the USA’s top cultural awards) in 2013. In 2014, he received both The Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song and the once-in-a-century ASCAP Centennial Award – the latter presented to American music icons in recognition of their incomparable accomplishments in their respective music genres and beyond. In 2016, the Library of Congress selected Piano Man for preservation in the National Recording Registry for its “cultural, historic, and artistic significance.” He’s the recipient of numerous other awards, including a Tony (for Movin’ Out, a Broadway musical based on his music), MusiCares Person Of The Year, and an inductee in the Songwriter’s Hall of Fame.

Piano Man, You May Be Right, Always a Woman, We Didn’t Start the Fire, Uptown Girl, Big Shot, It’s Still Rock and Roll to Me, Only the Good Die Young, New York State of Mind… the hunger to see this highly influential songwriter remains undiminished.
