Starring The Lovin’ Spoonful, The Hollies Greatest Hits starring Terry Sylvester, and Gary Lewis and The Playboys
Pathfinder Productions’ presents the launch of The MY GENERATION Tour starring The Lovin’ Spoonful, The Hollies Greatest Hits starring Terry Sylvester, and Gary Lewis and The Playboys. “This good-time spectacular celebrates the time of our lives with all three acts performing with their own full bands spanning the golden singles-era of pop music, from 1965 to 1975. This was the magic time where hit singles ruled the charts and won our hearts,” producer Jim Della Croce exclaims. Original member and co-founder of The Lovin’ Spoonful, Steve Boone, will appear on select dates.* Terry Sylvester, who famously replaced Graham Nash after he left The Hollies, will perform along with famed pop legend Gary Lewis. “This show is the baby-boomer bucket list must see event of the year, a hip trip back to the era that defined our generation,” he concludes.

The MY GENERATION TOUR stars the bands whose sounds swept across the airwaves at homes in our rooms and on the beach with our transistor radios. The music drove us into the record stores to grasp the singles we loved and play them until the grooves wore out. Between The Lovin’ Spoonful, The Hollies, and Gary Lewis and The Playboys, the charts exploded every week with a new tune that captivated our rock and roll souls. Nearly 30 hits will explode throughout this two-hour celebration: “Daydream,” “Do You Believe in Magic,” “This Diamond Ring,” “Carrie Anne,” “Long Cool Woman (in a Black Dress), “Count Me In,” “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother,” “Summer in the City,” “She’s Just My Style,” “You Didn’t Have to Be So Nice,” “On a Carousel,” “Sure Gonna Miss Her” and “The Air that I Breathe.”

With his signature beard and African headgear, Billy F Gibbons is instantly recognizable and best known as the centerpiece of ZZ Top.

BFG is widely regarded as one of the world’s finest guitarists working in the blues-rock idiom. The sound originates from the uncanny knack to squeeze unheard of sounds out of the electric guitar with the blues, pop, R&B, country, gospel, western, hillbilly and West Africa.  That BFG down ‘n dirty growl is unmistakable heard on such hits as “La Grange,” “Sharp Dressed Man” and “Cheap Sunglasses”.

Billy F Gibbons is much more than an iconic guitar slinger with a monumental length of chin whiskers... He’s an internationally recognized collector of guitars and cars, noted in the best-selling book, Rock + Roll Gearhead.
Beyond guitars and cars, Gibbons has a renowned collection of African art, with an abiding interest in both the paranormal and cutting-edge technology.

Billy’s solo album releases, the Afro-Cuban flavored “Perfectamundo", the bluesy, "The Big Bad Blues”, and the hard rockin, “Hardware”  all represent what he refers to as the “Three T’s”: Tone, Taste and Tenacity.  BFG is truly a highly regarded Renaissance man.

Chris “Whipper” Layton holds his remarkable standings as the drummer for Stevie Ray Vaughn & Double Trouble, along with “The Arc Angels” band, guitarist Kenny Shepherd, and now marking the cornerstone backbeat with Billy F Gibbons and "The BFG’s".

Mike 'The Drifter' Flanigin is a shining light of the Texas Blues scene.  A master of the Hammond B3 organ, known for his collaborations with Texas guitar legends Billy F Gibbons & Jimmie Vaughan, Flanigin is infamously known throughout the Austin Blues scene.  Flanigin has done n’ played ‘em all…from juke joints, Texas and beer joints, to Madison Square Garden and beyond.

The Dan Band
Dan Finnerty first caught America’s attention as the foul-mouthed wedding singer in the box-office smash OLD SCHOOL, performing his now infamous rendition of “Total Eclipse of the Heart”. Todd Phillips has continued to feature Dan with cameos in STARSKY & HUTCH and the highest grossing R-rated comedy of all time THE HANGOVER, where he performed his version of “Candy Shop”. What started as a drunken joke for Finnerty singing I Am Woman at a karaoke bar spiraled out of control into THE DAN BAND - a cult phenomenon that has garnered rave reviews from The New York Times, The L.A. Times, Rolling Stone and Variety and prompted Entertainment Weekly to dub it “The hottest ticket in Hollywood.” THE DAN BAND plays to sold-out crowds from Los Angeles to New York and has appeared numerous times on "The Tonight Show," "Jimmy Kimmel Live," "Ellen," "The Late Late Show" and even caught the attention of Steven Spielberg, who signed on to executive produce Dan's one hour concert special “The Dan Band: I Am Woman,” directed by McG. THE DAN BAND has released three albums, “THE DAN BAND LIVE”, “HO: A DAN BAND XMAS,” and “The Wedding Album” - which debuted at the top of the iTunes Comedy charts and featured collaborations with Train, Nicole Scherzinger, Bridget Everett and Rob Thomas. They tour all of the world, from rock & comedy clubs to large theaters to festivals to corporate events and the occasional high-profile wedding. Dan’s specialty for combining his improv-comedy skills along with his spin on the hilarious covers they perform makes each show feel catered to that specific audience and has kept The Dan Band in high demand for years.

What is Puscifer?
It’s a band of three creative confidants, namely Mat Mitchell, Carina Round, and Maynard James Keenan. It’s a vehicle for sonic and visual storytelling on stages worldwide and on screen through videos, animation, content, and more. It’s indelibly left its mark everywhere, releasing a series of acclaimed albums, selling out famed venues, probing the lineups of Coachella, Bonnaroo, and other festivals, and even curating their own touring festival, Sessanta. They’ve provided what was essentially the soundtrack to the first season of “Yellowstone,” and their albums regularly land on the top 30 of the Billboard Top 200. They’ve caused a ruckus on late-night television, with appearances on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and the “The Late Show.”

At the same time, Puscifer has welcomed a revolving door of collaborators, from musicians like Greg Edwards, Gunnar Olsen, and Sarah Jones to remixers including Trent Reznor, Atticus Ross, Phantogram, and Sir Mix-A-Lot, and even actors such as Bob Odenkirk and Milla Jovovich. It’s also a universe for the (mis)adventures of original characters: Billy D, (his wife) Hildy Berger, Major Douche, and Special Agent Dick Merkin, It’s a 21st-century freak show where anything goes, everyone is welcome, and nothing is off-limits.

With Special Guest: The Neighborhood Kids

Tom Morello: Rock God. Justice fighter. Rabble-rouser. Ivy Leaguer. An American renegade and fearless truth teller. Audioslave and Rage Against the Machine's guitar virtuoso, Tom Morello, is many things; but perhaps, he himself, sums it up best: a one-man revolution. Join Tom Morello & Friends for a full band electric show that showcases songs throughout Tom’s 30-year career.

When you wake up and want to put a smile on your face, you think of the songs that always manage to reach down and touch your soul the moment you hear the first note. The Marshall Tucker Band is one such group that continues to have a profound level of impact on successive generations of listeners who’ve been "Searchin’ for a Rainbow" and found it perfectly represented by this tried-and-true Southern institution over the decades. “I’ve been in tune with how music can make you feel, right from when I was first in the crib,” explains lead vocalist and bandleader Doug Gray, who’s been fronting the MTB since the very beginning. “I was born with that. And I realized it early on, back when I was a little kid and my mom and dad encouraged me to get up there and sing whatever song came on the jukebox. It got to the point where people were listening to me more than what was on the jukebox! There’s a certain gift I found I could share, whether I was in front of five people or 20,000 people. I was blessed with that ability and I’m thankful I can share with others."

The Marshall Tucker Band came together as a young, hungry, and quite driven six-piece outfit in Spartanburg, South Carolina in 1972, having duly baptized themselves with the name of a blind piano tuner after they found it inscribed on a key to their original rehearsal space — and they’ve been in tune with tearing it up on live stages both big and small all across the globe ever since. Plus, the band’s mighty music catalog, consisting of more than 20 studio albums and a score of live releases, has racked up multi-platinum album sales many times over. A typically rich MTB setlist is bubbling over
with a healthy dose of hits like the heartfelt singalong “Heard It in a Love Song,” the insistent pleading of “Can’t You See” (the signature tune of MTB’s late co-founding lead guitarist and then-principal songwriter Toy Caldwell), the testifying “Fire on the Mountain,” the wanderlust gallop of “Long Hard Ride,” and the explosive testimony of “Ramblin,’” to name but a few.

Indeed, the secret ingredient to the ongoing success of The Marshall Tucker Band’s influence can be seen and felt far and wide throughout many mainstream digital outlets (Netflix, Amazon, etc.). In essence, it’s this inimitable down-home sonic style that helped make the MTB the first truly progressive Southern band to grace this nation’s airwaves — the proof of which can be found within the grooves and ever-shifting gears of “Take the Highway,” the first song on their self-titled April 1973 debut album on Capricorn Records, The Marshall Tucker Band. “We had the commonality of having all grown up together in Spartanburg,” explains Gray about his original MTB bandmates, guitar wizard Toy Caldwell and his brother, bassist Tommy Caldwell, alongside rhythm guitarist George McCorkle, drummer Paul T. Riddle, and flautist/saxophonist Jerry Eubanks. “The framework for Marshall Tucker’s music is more like a spaceship than a house,” Gray continues, “because you can look out of a lot of windows and see a variety of things that show where we’ve been and what we’ve done, and how we’ve travelled through time to bring those experiences out in all of our songs.”

The Marshall Tucker Band’s influence can be felt far and wide through many respected contemporaries and the artists who’ve followed the path forged by their collective footsteps and footstomps. “MTB helped originate and personify what was to become known as Southern rock, and I was privileged to watch it all come together in the ’70s, night after night,” said the legendary late Charlie Daniels. “In fact, The Charlie Daniels Band has played more dates with The Marshall Tucker Band over the past years than any other band we’ve ever worked with. Even after all these years — after the tragedies, the miles, the personnel changes, and the many developments in the music business.” Daniels added that he never got tired of seeing his MTB brothers on the road: “Whenever Doug Gray walks into my dressing room with that big ol’ smile of his and then we hug each other and sit and talk for a while, the evening is complete.”

“I remember seeing Marshall Tucker and The Outlaws play together in Jacksonville many years ago, when I was just a kid,” recalls Lynyrd Skynyrd lead singer Johnny Van Zant. “And I heard them all over the radio back then too. They were just so cool and so unique that I fell in love with the band, and I also fell in love with the music. Having them open for us on all those dates was like a dream come true, and they’re still as good as I’ve ever seen them. It brought back a lot of memories for me, because I really looked up to those guys when I was first starting out.”

Ed Roland, the lead vocalist and chief songwriter for Collective Soul, adds “The Marshall Tucker Band had a big influence on me and they still do.” Roland, who’s lived the majority of his life in and around Atlanta, also proudly points out that his band’s biggest hit, “Shine,” owes a clear debt to the musical structure of “Can’t You See,” and he’ll often start off by singing the opening line to that song — “I’m gonna take a freight train” — whenever Collective Soul performs “Shine” live. “We don’t want to stray from what we grew up listening to,” Roland continues. “I think that’s something important for people to hear. It’s just who we are, and I don’t think we should run from it. Hopefully, people see that southern connection to the bands we love like Marshall Tucker in our music.”

Doug Gray sees no end to the road that lies ahead for The Marshall Tucker Band, whose legacy is being carried forward by the man himself and his current bandmates, drummer B.B. Borden (Mother’s Finest, The Outlaws), bassist/vocalist Ryan Ware, keyboardist/saxophonist/flautist/vocalist Marcus James Henderson, guitarist/vocalist Chris Hicks, and guitarist/ vocalist Rick Willis. “You know, I think it was Toy Caldwell’s dad who said, ‘There’s more to gray hair than old bones,’ and we still have a lot of stories yet to tell,” Gray concludes. “People ask me all the time what I’m gonna do when I turn 80, and I always say, ‘The same thing that we’re continuing to do now.’ We’re road warriors, there’s no doubt about that — and I don’t intend to slow down.” May the MTB wagon train continue running like the wind on a long hard ride for many more years to come. One thing we absolutely know for sure: If you heard it in a Marshall Tucker Band song, it certainly can’t be wrong.

Lita Ford
Lita Ford One of two solo stars to spring from the ashes of the '70s all-girl hard rock band the Runaways, Lita Ford has long been a more frustrating, contradictory proposition for critics than former colleague Joan Jett. Ford is subtly feminist in her musical approach, displaying guitar heroics on the level of any male metal hero; the mere fact of her existence in the otherwise testosterone-driven heavy metal genre has made her a hero to some.

Dee Snider
Dee Snider One of heavy metal's most powerful and distinctive voices, Dee Snider ascended to hard rock royalty in the early 1980s as the lead singer for New Jersey-based glam-metallers Twisted Sister. A charismatic and outspoken frontman -- in 1985, alongside John Denver and Frank Zappa, he testified against censorship in regard to the Tipper Gore-led PMRC (Parents Music Resource Center) -- Snider and company topped the charts in 1984 with the all-purpose usagainst-the-world anthems "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock." After the 1987 dissolution of the group, he embarked on a series of solo and group projects, as well as acting and screenwriting gigs, that kept him busy well into the 21st century. In 2021 he issued his fifth solo effort, Leave a Scar.

Firehouse
Firehouse arrived at the tail end of the pop-metal explosion of the late '80s and early '90s, releasing their first album in 1991. Featuring the combined talents of vocalist C.J. Snare, Michael Foster, Bill Leverty, and Perry Richardson, the group's melodic, commercial hard rock had immediate chart success; their self-titled debut went platinum and featured two Top 20 singles, "Don't Treat Me Bad" and "Love of a Lifetime." The following year, Firehouse released their second album, Hold Your Fire, which managed to go gold on the strength of "When I Look Into Your Eyes" (another Top Ten hit).

After CJ Snare's untimely passing, Nate Peck was announced as the band's new lead singer in May 2024. With CJ's blessing, he had been filling in since October 2023 while CJ was recovering from surgery. Nate is a vocal phenom who captured America's attention after receiving the "Golden Ticket" on American Idol in March 2023. He has garnered unwavering support and approval from Firehouse's entire fanbase.
