4 Singers Who Are Still Performing Despite Being Over 70

For many, age is just a number. You wouldn't believe how many superstars are still touring singers over the age of 70.

These four artists can still be seen live in concert, and honestly, they never lost it. Sure, seeing a young fresh, energetic new group is fantastic. But, watching a legend step onto the stage and still sing as well as they ever had over the age of 70 is something else. It takes real passion and fortitude to keep at it after all these years.

Bob Dylan

It's never going to be the End of The Line for Mr. Tambourine Man it seems. He is a solid 83 years old and still touring, playing shows, and pulling in the fans. His voice has always been such a unique sound, and it hasn't lost any of its beauty. He is still looking to complete a European tour, so catch one of the best over 70 singers while you can.

Willie Nelson

At 91 years old, Willie Nelson continues to tour, complete with signature headband and beaming smile. For some people, playing shows and making music is as core to their existence as breathing. I feel like Willie Nelson will be playing gigs up until the end. It's a true marvel that this singer is able to do what he does over 70.

Mick Jagger

The Rolling Stones frontman not only continues to perform at 81 but actually puts on one hell of a show to boot. I would argue that Jagger has looked 80 since he was 30, but his energy has always been that of a young man. You wouldn't believe the singer is over 70. He is still capable of playing multi-hour long shows, filled with his massive voice, and even a few moves. You just can't keep him off that stage.

Stevie Nicks

If you want to catch Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac fame on stage, it isn't too late. Despite being 76, she is still playing stage shows to adoring crowds. She hasn't lost any of that magical musical talent either. As with most on this list, she has only gotten better with age, adapting her music and sound to match her maturing sound. Truly a remarkable talent.
