#1 in our 2024 countdown, we celebrate the History-Making Concert at the sold-out, iconic Odeon of Herodes Atticus—one of the oldest and most revered open-air theatres in the world. Located on the southwest slope of the Acropolis in Athens, Greece, this venue has seen the greatest names in music, from Maria Callas to Frank Sinatra, grace its stage. In 2024, Eric B Turner etched his name into its storied history with an unforgettable performance. Known for his unique blend of raw, gritty blues, Turner brought an unmatched energy to the legendary venue, showcasing his bold artistic vision. He became one of the select few American artists to perform there, joining an elite list that includes Liza Minnelli, Dionne Warwick, and now, Eric B Turner. The night’s standout moment was the crowd-energizing rendition of “Black Betty,” famously recorded by Lead Belly in 1939. This powerful call-and-response work song had the audience on their feet, roaring with applause, as Turner breathed new life into it with his signature sound. His performance was a stirring celebration of blues, culture, and artistry—a moment that will be remembered as the launching point for what promises to be a remarkable and transformative career. Eric B Turner’s groundbreaking concert at the Odeon of Herodes Atticus marked the beginning of a new era in his artistic journey—one that promises to continue to redefine his place in the world of music. 👉🏽“BLACK BETTY” Performance 9/2/24 on YouTube: ⭐️Featuring: @seriniyoungblood 🎸 ⭐️ Conductor: @minosmatsas ⭐️ Special Thanks @vertigomusicbooking_ Full Video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/-b5Ca38Ce3I?si=fF381ukR6hnY8G6X
