Iconic hitmakers Train and REO Speedwagon will join forces for this summer’s co-headlining tour, which will wind its way to Phoenix.
The bands will be hitting the road on the Summer Road Trip Tour, bringing together Train’s acclaimed catalog of hits with REO Speedwagon’s collection of classics. With more than 50 million albums sold worldwide, 32 songs on Billboard’s Hot 100, and 28 albums on the Billboard 200 albums chart between them, fans get the chance to see them together on one night.
The 44-city tour kicks off in July in Somerset, Wisconsin, and will close at Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre, 2121 N. 83rd Ave., on Wednesday, Sept. 11.
Joining Train and REO Speedwagon on the road as direct support on all dates is special guest Yacht Rock Revue.
“When I was younger I heard a band called REO Speedwagon and fell in love with their numerous, infectious hit songs,” Train frontman Pat Monahan shared in a press release. “This tour won’t just be a great time with great people, but a tour that will have a ton of familiar songs to most generations. I will be wishing I was in the audience as much as I’ll love being on the stage.”
“Pat Monahan and I have done several benefit shows over the years, and now we get to take out our bands for a summer full of music and fun,” REO Speedwagon’s Kevin Cronin shared.
