The Carpenters come alive in Newport’s tribute concert

Newport World Resorts brings the timeless hits of The Carpenters to life with the “Carpenters Reborn” concert on Dec. 3 at the Newport Performing Arts Theater. It is yesterday once more for fans of the phenomenally successful brother-sister duo as the tribute show that features Chloe Foston as Karen Carpenter takes them back to The Carpenters’ heyday.

Karen, together with her brother Richard, are the iconic Carpenter siblings, who produced a repertoire of harmony-laced hits in the 1970s such as “Close to You,” “Top of the World,” “We’ve Only Just Begun,” “Please Mr. Postman” and “Yesterday Once More.” The top-selling American act released 12 studio albums, two Christmas albums, and numerous singles, selling over 100 million records.

The United Kingdom-based singer has been touring across the world, along with the six-piece tribute band Solitaire. Audiences will witness how Foston musically channels Karen and celebrates the legacy of the Carpenters.
