Barry Manilow Tickets

Music has always been a part of Barry Manilow's life. By the age of seven his musical roots were firmly planted. When he decided music was what he would do for the rest of his life, he went to Julliard and the New York College of Music. Known internationally as a superstar, Barry Manilow's career spans all aspects of entertainment. He is a songwriter and recording artist, and his acting abilities have blessed television, film and stage. With over 58 million album sales worldwide, he is the number one adult contemporary artist of all time. Manilow has written hundreds of songs and performed around the world, picking up nominations for Tony Awards, Grammys, Emmys and Oscars throughout his career.

At the age of 18 Barry had written an original score for The Drunkard, which was such a success it ran for eight straight years. At the same time he was singing jingles for radio and television commercials and was half of a musical duo that had a two-year run at the Upstairs at the Downstairs club in New York. It was in 1972 that Barry met Bette Midler and began arranging and producing songs for her first Grammy-winning album and her second platinum album. In 1974, with the release of "Mandy," Barry began a string of 25 consecutive Top 40 hits that included "Even Now," "I Write The Songs" and "Weekend In New England." Within four years he had five different albums on the charts at the same time, something only Johnny Mathis and Frank Sinatra had previously accomplished.
