Blues Traveler
Blues Traveler are currently celebrating 30 years since their massive Grammy award-winning hit, “Run-Around.” Yes, you read that right – it’s been 30 years! Of course we can’t forget “Hook” as well. In a press release for the show, lead singer John Popper of Blues Traveler was excited about touring with his friends.
“Getting to play with dear old friends like Gin Blossoms and the Spin Doctors is one of the great benefits of a touring career that spans almost four decades now. These are exceptional players and performers, and they push us to play even harder. Everybody digs in and makes each other better. We are looking forward to a great year of music!”
