Alison Krauss and Union Station, Diana Krall announced for 2025 concert season
WILMINGTON — Two songstresses well-known in their respective industries are performing in Wilmington in 2025.
American bluegrass and country performer Alison Krauss, best known for performing with her band Union Station, is coming to Live Oak Bank Pavilion. Jazz chanteuse Diana Krall is coming to Wilson Center. Below is information on how and when to get tickets.
Legendary pianist and singer Diana Krall will perform on Tuesday, July 8, 2025, at 7:30 p.m., at Cape Fear Community College’s Wilson Center. Two-time Grammy winner Krall has eight albums that have topped the Billboard Jazz Albums chart, many of which have gone gold, platinum and multi-platinum. Her 1999 release “When I Look in Your Eyes” spent 52 weeks on the jazz charts, earning her the Grammy.
The Canadian artist, who began studying piano at age 4, also has won 10 Juno Awards for 2017’s “Turn Up the Quiet.” By 15, she was performing jazz at the encouragement of her stride pianist father before earning a Berklee College of Music scholarship and thereafter moving to L.A. To date, she has released more than a dozen albums, including 2020’s “This Dream of You,” produced by Tommy LiPuma, with whom Krall worked with for 25 years. “Autumn In New York,” a cinematic ode directed by long-time collaborator and friend Mark Seliger, offers a visual complement to the song as well.
Krall — married to Elvis Costello, who also performed at Wilson Center in 2023 — has collaborated with various artists throughout her career, including Paul McCartney, Barbra Streisand, and Tony Bennett.
