Talent Spotlight: Ali Berke Set to Make History by Performing At Every Major League Baseball Stadium in US

by #LizCampese

Ali Berke

Ali Berke is a twenty-three-year-old singer-songwriter based in New York City, and she is on a mission to become the first and only person to tour and perform at every Major League Baseball Stadium in the country to date — all thirty of them. She has been chipping away at this goal for the last few seasons, having performed at fourteen stadiums so far, but the main quest begins this Friday, May 24, when she makes an appearance at Arizona’s famous Chase Field. 

That is the first stop on this leg of her multi-season journey. This summer, she is also scheduled to perform in Oakland on May 26, Houston on June 1 and Miami the next day, San Diego on June 24, Cincinnati on July 6, Chicago on September 3, Anaheim on September 18, Washington DC on September 28, with more possible dates leading up to the Fall Classic. The feat is unique in the record books and Berke is eager to cement her place in history.

It’s a dream tour for the up-and-coming performer. Previously, she’s had the opportunity to perform The Star Spangled Banner alongside notable acts, such as The Backstreet Boys’ AJ McLean and the late Aaron Carter. Furthermore, she had already taken the stage at famous spots, like the Orange County Fair and the American Dream Mall along with world-class venues like Madison Square Garden and House of Blues. 

Given her experience, the summer tour will include shows and promotional appearances of all kinds. Audiences can expect to hear Berke alternate between singing her original compositions and her heartfelt rendition of the National Anthem at ballparks and other venues across the US. But New Yorkers get to see her sooner than later, when she performs her new single “Stepford Wives,” which drops on all major platforms on June 14, on Thursday, June 27th. 

The pop artist — who has been receiving consistent high praise from fans, members of the industry, and the press — is set to appear in Long Island’s Jones Beach Bandshell on the Boardwalk in Wantagh. Aside from “Stepford Wives,” attendees will also get to see her perform her other hits, which include cover songs as well as original compositions by Berke.  So make sure to follow Ali Berke on Youtube, and stream her new single on 6/14!
