Sharing the Shed stage on Friday, August 30 at 7 p.m. are rock icons Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo and Melissa Etheridge. The combination of Benatar’s vocals with Neil Giraldo’s songwriting and guitar have created 19 Top 40 hits, including “We Belong,” “Invincible,” “Love Is a Battlefield,” “Promises in The Dark,” and “We Live for Love.” They have sold over 30 million records worldwide and have won an unprecedented four consecutive Grammy awards. Benatar and Giraldo perform in Tanglewood as part of a multi-city tour this summer celebrating their 40th anniversary together.
