Overview

Canberra, get ready for a powerhouse night of soul.

The Zeppelin Room will be celebrating two icons — the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin, and the legendary sounds of The Commitments.

The Australian Commitments Show, delivering the high-energy classics that made the film a cult favourite, including Mustang Sally, In The Midnight Hour and Try A Little Tenderness, plays first.

Then, four of Canberra's most sought-after female vocalists take the stage for a stunning tribute to Aretha Franklin. Backed by an exceptional live band, expect all the hits — Respect, Think, Freeway of Love and more — complete with the rich vocal harmonies that defined her sound.

Big vocals, timeless hits, and a dancefloor that won't stay still.
