The Pretenders will arrive on September 23 to perform at the Menorah Mivtachim Hall in Tel Aviv.
The Pretenders, an English-American rock band formed in March 1978, are known for hits such as "Back On The Chain Gang," "I'll Stand By You," "Middle Of The Road" and "I'm Not In Love."
Like many successful ensembles in the 1980s, The Pretenders suffered many hurdles over the years, including lineup changes due to the deaths of two band members. However, the band scored a major achievement in 2005 when they entered the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Their latest album, Alone, was released last year after eight years of hiatus and received critical acclaim.
Their concert in Israel will include songs from their latest album, along with many of their well known classics.
Ticket prices range from NIS 295-695.
