Hailed as one of the most successful and talented female pop artists, King has carved out an iconic place in music history. King began her rise to the music hall of fame as the songwriter of classics like "Will You Love Me Tomorrow (The Shirelles) and "Take Good Care of My Baby" (Bobby Vee). In 1971, King's solo album "Tapestry" launched her to the top of the charts with hits like "I Feel the Earth Move" and "Natural Woman," winning her four Grammy Awards for Best Record, Song and Album of the Year, as well as Best Pop Vocal Performance, Female Honors.

With her powerful voice and soulful dedication, Naponelli has captured the true essence of King in this unique and unforgettable tribute experience. Backed by a bold five-piece band, Naponelli pays homage to the iconic Queen of Pop with impressive renditions of "I Feel the Earth Move," "Chains" and "You've Got a Friend" from King's "Tapestry" album as well as other favorites.

A Crystal Lake native, Naponelli is no stranger to the entertainment industry. She is a proud graduate of North Central College, where she studied theatre performance. Since graduating, Naponelli has created successful cabarets in tribute to Sara Bareilles and hits from the kings and queens of the music industry. She has also gone on to be a part of several theatrical productions, with recent theatre credits including "Tomorrow Morning" (Kokandy Productions), "Beehive" and "Suds: The Rocking 60's Musical" (Williams Street Repertory), "It's a Wonderful Life" and "Columbinus 2.0" (American Theater Company).
