No one in popular American music has recorded for so long and at such a high level of excellence as Tony Bennett. The 19-time Grammy Award winner has transcended generations, and is a significant contributor to the canon of influential American songs of the 20th century. His chart-toppers include Because of You, Rags to Riches, and his signature song, I Left My Heart in San Francisco. His artistry and popularity spans seven decades, among the longest tenures in American music. His 2006 and 2011 releases of Duets and Duets II, respectively, included performances with Barbra Streisand, James Taylor, Billy Joel, Elton John, Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder, Michael Bublé, Bono, Lady Gaga and the late Amy Winehouse. At the age of 88, he broke his own record, by becoming the oldest artist to have a #1 Album on the Billboard Top 200 with his collaborative effort with Lady Gaga, CHEEK TO CHEEK. Mr. Bennett was honored with the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2001 and became a Kennedy Center honoree in 2005. A celebrated painter, three of his original works are housed in the Smithsonian Institution’s permanent collection. As he approaches his 90th Birthday in August, he loves life and sees each day as an opportunity to learn something new.
A testament to Bennett’s unprecedented longevity in a notoriously fickle industry—his latest three Grammy nominations make him the only artist in history to have a 50-year span of Grammy nominations. As he puts it, “I like what I do, and my ambition is to get better as I get older.”
