UK Sensation Katherine Jenkins Singing With Ocean City Pops

OCEAN CITY, NJ — Great Britain star Katherine Jenkins will perform with the Ocean City Pops Orchestra for a special concern at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 11. Tickets for the Ocean City Music Pier show are on sale now.

Jenkins was officially crowned the No.1 selling “Classical Music Artist of the Last 25 Years” by Classic FM. She made chart history when she achieved 12 UK Classical No.1 albums in 12 years. These accolades cemented her position as the world's most prolific artist in UK classical chart history.

Jenkins most recently released "Guiding Light," her 13th and most personal album yet. The album represents the culmination of a deeply emotional journey that began when her father died and she became a mother.

She also placed second in the 14th season of "Dancing with the Stars," finishing behind former NFL wide receiver Donald Driver.
