powre bi report builder , concatenation

I did not see a power bi report builder category so posting here, my apologies 

 

I have a report that i built in power bi report builder (.rdl). My report header should say something like this

 

data between "date1" and "date2"  (date1 and date2 are columns in the dataset)

 

however, the concatenation & is not working, how do i concatenate a text followed by these 2 date columns ?
