Legendary rock ‘n’ roll band BOSTON celebrates
40 years at Hard Rock Live on Friday, April 29,
at 8pm. BOSTON is an American rock band
formed in Boston, Massachusetts in the late
1970s. Centered on guitarist, keyboardist,
songwriter and producer Tom Sholz, the band
became an iconic classic rock fixture when
it joined the music scene with its self-titled
album in 1976.
Their debut album was an enormous success
and peaked at #3 on the Billboard 200 Albums
chart. With more than 17 million copies sold,
BOSTON generated rock staples that are still
in heavy rotation today such as "More Than a
Feeling," "Peace of Mind" and "Smokin." The
band’s second album “Don't Look Back” was
another chart-topper that confirmed its place
in rock history, followed by “Third Stage,”
which hit No. 1 on the charts, with the top
single of 1986, "Amanda." With more than 31
million albums sold to date, BOSTON has stood
the test of time, as evidenced by live audiences
that span generations.
Fans can expect to hear all the classic songs they
have grown to love as well as new additions to
the band’s set list based on recent requests.
Guests will be treated to Hammond organ
work, soaring harmony guitars and exceptional
vocal arrangements, as well as BOSTON’s
unique visual stage presentation. Don’t miss
their highly anticipated performance this
spring at Hard Rock Live.
