George Thorogood And the Destroyers on Tour
GEORGE THOROGOOD AND THE DESTROYERS TO EMBARK ON 32-CITY U.S. AND
CANADIAN “BADDER THAN EVER TOUR” STARTING FEBRUARY 26, 2016
Los Angeles, CA (December 17, 2015)—GEORGE THOROGOOD AND THE DESTROYERS announce their upcoming 32-city U.S. and Canadian “GEORGE THOROGOOD AND THE DESTOYERS: BADDER THAN EVER” spring tour, beginning on February 26, 2016 in Biloxi, Mississippi, and concluding on July 23 in Florence, Indiana.
Of the band’s live shows, says The Baltimore Sun: “Thorogood is a guitar-blazing revivalist whose enthusiasm and showmanship make the music fresh; The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel: “He’s got charisma and personality to burn, a fact that becomes evident the moment he walks on stage. It is Thorogood’s gift, that he’s able to bridge the gulf between audience and performer; L.A. Daily News: “George Thorogood & The Destroyers completely took over…the band, featuring a drummer, a saxophonist and three guitarists, sounded spectacular…all these years, that George is still ‘Bad To The Bone’ and he’s never let go of the true spirit of rock ’n roll!”
Touring and recording for more than 40 years, Thorogood and his longtime band The Destroyers – Jeff Simon (drums, percussion), Bill Blough (bass guitar), Buddy Leach (Saxophone), and Jim Suhler (rhythm guitar) — continue touring with their powerhouse rock with bar band roots, unchained attitude, and a fierce love of their country and blues history. Over the course of 16 studio albums in the last four decades, George and his legendary band have stormed the charts with six Gold and two Platinum selling albums with a catalog of classics that includes “Who Do You Love,” “I Drink Alone,” “One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer,” “Move It On Over,” “Bad To The Bone,” and more.
