LED ZEPPELIN will be honored at ECHO 2013 with the newly established "Lifetime Achievement Award International"!
On behalf of the British rock legend Led Zeppelin, guitarist Jimmy Page and multi-instrumentalist John Paul Jones will personally accept the "Lifetime Achievement Award International for Outstanding Contribution to Music" at the ECHO award ceremony in Berlin.
The band, which also includes singer Robert Plant and the late drummer John Bonham, has sold millions of albums worldwide. Unfortunately, Robert Plant will not be able to attend due to a long-scheduled concert in Singapore on the same day.
Led Zeppelin has thrilled and inspired generations of musicians and fans around the world – now two members of one of the greatest rock bands of all time are coming to the German Music Award ECHO in Berlin. On March 21, the Deutsche Phono-Akademie, the cultural institute of the Federal Association of the Music Industry (BVMI), will present the British band with the "Lifetime Achievement Award International for Outstanding Contribution to Music". "This year, we honor a legend with this award," says BVMI Managing Director Dr. Florian Drücke. "Led Zeppelin has lost none of their fascination and charisma to this day. It is a special honor for us that this century-defining band will be present at the ECHO 2013 in Berlin."
Led Zeppelin has sold over 200 million albums to date and once again proved their exceptional status when 20 million fans tried to get tickets for the band's London reunion show in 2007. An event that was impressively documented on the CD/DVD "Celebration Day". The album was released in November 2012 and also conquered the top spot on the charts in Germany immediately upon release.
