Formed in London in 1971 after founding members Dave Peverett, Tony Stevens and Roger Earl left their previous English blues rock band, Savoy Brown, Foghat is known for classic hits including “Slow Ride,” “Drivin’ Wheel,” and “Third Time Lucky (First Time I Was a Fool).” The band celebrated its 50-year anniversary in 2021, and their live performances are a testament to how the band’s longevity has persisted. Foghat has earned eight Gold Records, one Platinum Record and one Double-Platinum record while continuing to release new music every few years.

About Burton Cummings
Few artists have achieved the level of public success and critical acclaim that Burton Cummings enjoys in a career spanning more than sixty years. Burton’s voice has been rated among the finest in rock music. With the original ‘The Guess Who,’ he earned recognition for the first U.S. Platinum album by a Canadian artist and, as a solo artist, the first quadruple Platinum Canadian-produced album. Burton is honored to have received, in total, 80 Platinum and Gold Record Awards. Recently, the best-selling book “The 100 Top Canadian Singles” ranked “American Woman” the greatest Canadian single of all time. As the voice of the original ‘The Guess Who’ hits before the band broke up in 1975, to then go on and make his mark as a solo artist, Burton Cummings remains at the top of his game as an unrivaled singer, songwriter, showman and recording artist. Often described as Canadian rock ‘n’ roll royalty, a national treasure and a living legend, Cummings has always stayed true to himself, his unique style of rock and continues to perform his songs as they were originally conceived by the artist who sang and wrote/co-wrote them.

About Foghat
Foghat’s journey began in 1971 when Lonesome Dave Peverett and Roger Earl left Savoy Brown to start their own band. In 1975, they released Fool for the City, an album that included the hit song “Slow Ride.” Building on the massive success of this song, the group released 1977’s “Foghat Live,” a multi-Platinum album that solidified their place on the worldwide music map. Over the years, Foghat has earned eight Gold Records, one Platinum Record and one double-Platinum Record. Despite the inevitable ups and downs, including the loss of beloved members Lonesome Dave (2000), Rod Price (2005) and Craig MacGregor (2018), the band has persevered, driven by their love of music. The 2024 lineup includes founding member Roger Earl on drums, long-time member Bryan Bassett (formerly of Molly Hatchet and Wild Cherry) on lead and slide guitar, Rodney O’Quinn (Pat Travers Band) on bass and vocals and newest member Scott Holt (Buddy Guy) on lead vocals and guitar. Holt, who previously played with Foghat side project Earl & the Agitators, seamlessly fits into the band’s dynamic, contributing to their ongoing legacy. In 2024, Foghat celebrates 53 years of rock ‘n’ roll history. This legendary band released their latest album, “Sonic Mojo,” in November 2023, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Blues Charts and as of June 2024, the album had remained on the charts for 27 weeks. Known for their infectious boogie rock, Foghat continues to captivate audiences, delivering high-energy performances that are just as thrilling today as they were in 1977 when their classic album broke them worldwide. Foghat’s timeless appeal spans generations. Their concerts attract Baby Boomers, Gen X’ers, Millennials, and younger fans alike. Whether discovered through the video game Guitar Hero III, the movie Dazed & Confused, or the inclusion of “Slow Ride” in Top Gun/Maverick (2023), fans unite under the band’s electric energy and boogie-inducing music.
