Their 1978 debut album went multi-platinum\, followed by Flirtin’ With Disaster in 1979\, which helped define their sound and success. The band became known for heavy touring\, energetic live shows\, and lineup changes over the years\, including the departure and return of key members like Danny Joe Brown and Bobby Ingram. Today\, Molly Hatchet continues to carry on its Southern rock legacy\, performing classic hits like “Flirtin’ With Disaster” and “Gator Country” while keeping their signature hard-driving style alive. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuy Now

SUMMARY:GEORGE THOROGOOD AND THE DESTROYERS: THE BADDEST SHOW ON EARTH with SPECIAL GUEST CANYON LIGHTS
DESCRIPTION:For the past 5+ decades\, over 8\,000 live shows and more than 15 million albums sold\, George Thorogood & The Destroyers have been “The All-American rock & roll party band” (Goldmine Magazine). And for their 53rd year of “playing rock & roll hot enough to melt the polar icecaps and flood the world’s major population centers” (Rolling Stone)\, the 2026 continuation of The Baddest Show On Earth Tour is a stage-shaking\, roof-raising\, guitar-snarling blast. “Could be the state of the world\,” says George. “Maybe it’s the healing power of rock & roll. But when we hit the stage on any given night\, I can guarantee that we’ll make you feel like a teenager again.” Then again\, George & The Destroyers have always delivered on their promises. In 1976\, they debuted as the most explosive indie breakthrough act of the decade. Throughout the ‘80s/’90s MTV era\, Thorogood was the epitome of snakeskin & shades guitar-slinger cool. And with chart-topping hits like ‘One Bourbon\, One Scotch\, One Beer’\, ‘Move It On Over’\, ‘Who Do You Love?’\, ‘I Drink Alone’\, ‘Get A Haircut’ and the ultimate badass anthem ‘Bad To The Bone’\, George & The Destroyers became cornerstones of Classic Rock while their album catalog continues to dominate streaming charts worldwide. And whether it’s been their landmark performances at Live Aid and on SNL or recent smash tours with John Fogerty\, ZZ Top and Sammy Hagar\, they remain among the most reliable/formidable concert acts on the planet. “Don’t let anyone tell you this gig won’t keep you energized\,” “Thorogood says. “I defy bands half our age to put on a show like we do night after night.” And in a career which has seen him recently receive such tributes as The B.B. King Award from The Montreal International Jazz Festival\, being made honorary members of The Bo Diddley Centennial Committee\, and being invited to perform at The Grand Ole Opry\, are there any milestones left for Thorogood to achieve in the next 50 years? “It’s crazy to think that we’ve spent the last half century performing music we love for audiences who love what we do\,” George says. “But when you’ve got the best job in the world\, you can’t ever rest on your laurels. We not only work hard to bring our best\, but to keep getting better. That’s the only mission. That’s rock & roll.” \nFronted by Tim Carman and Pat Faherty\, formerly of GA-20\, Canyon Lights are a blend of throwback rock n’ roll\, swampy Americana\, and heavy blues. Friends and bandmates since 2018\, Pat and Tim have racked up thousands of hours touring and performing on stages all over the world. Their love of blues music fueled their explosive performances with GA-20\, a three-time #1 Billboard charting blues band from Boston\, MA. In 2023\, Pat and Tim began connecting over their mutual love of 70s rock n’ roll bands like Mountain\, Thin Lizzy\, and James Gang. Inspired by this era\, Pat proposed the two work out some song ideas he had been playing with. At the same time\, Tim revealed to Pat some personal lyrics he had held onto for years. The songwriting connection was instant and unique. Pat and Tim realized that this was a new venture\, not strictly blues and not confined to any lane of creativity. The two flew to Denver in early 2024 to put these sounds on tape with friend Dylan Brown at the helm as engineer and co-producer. From this session\, Canyon Lights was born. \nBuy Now

Reaching the top 10 with mega hits like “Whatcha Gonna Do When She Says Goodbye?” and “Love Will Find A Way\,” and several other top 20’s\, the band went on to sell several million albums and singles collectively and established themselves as well respected writers and performers within the industry.
