Aretha Franklin, “The Queen of Soul,” needs little introduction:
multiple Grammy winner, first woman to be inducted into the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame, singer of mega-hits such as “Respect,” “Chain of
Fools,” and “Think.” Her passionate, soulful sound makes her powerful
vocals instantly recognizable. Franklin is one of the most iconic
performers of the 20th century and The Ferguson Center for the Arts is
proud to host such a phenomenal artist. A living legend not to be
missed, Aretha Franklin is one of the world’s greatest performers.
