GRAMMY LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT<br />

AWARD AND A BRAND-NEW ALBUM<br />

Iconic superstar Dionne Warwick<br />

proudly accepted one of the Grammy<br />

Awards’ highest honors, the Lifetime<br />

Achievement Award. She shares the<br />

honor with other greats including<br />

George Clinton, Julio Iglesias,<br />

Donny Hathaway and Sam & Dave.<br />

The honorees were mentioned during<br />

the Grammy Awards telecast on<br />

February 10, <strong>2019</strong>. However, there<br />

will be a separate award presentation<br />

ceremony and concert to celebrate<br />

their achievement on May 11, <strong>2019</strong>,<br />

in Los Angeles.<br />

Warwick is also celebrating the<br />

release of her first new album in five<br />

years, produced by her son, Damon<br />

Elliott, titled “She’s Back.” Set to be<br />

released early this spring, this will be<br />

her 36th studio album. The 10-track<br />

album will contain new songs as<br />

well as covers of some of Warwick’s<br />

personal favorite pop/soul tunes.<br />

Her single, “What the World Needs<br />

Now,” was released on <strong>March</strong> 1.<br />

Aside from these two major<br />

accomplishments, Warwick has<br />

recently appeared on CBS’ longrunning<br />

weekend series, “Sunday<br />

Morning.” Those who have also<br />

appeared on the show during<br />

its 40 years of existence include<br />

Cher, Johnny Mathis and John<br />

Mellencamp.<br />

Just recently announced, Warwick<br />

will be doing a residency in Las<br />

Vegas from April 4 to 27 at Bally’s<br />

Hotel & Casino Jubilee Theater.<br />

She will be joined by her talented<br />

granddaughter, Cheyenne Elliott. I<br />

was honored to have a conversation<br />

with Warwick regarding the fabulous<br />

way in which her year has started.
