Featuring: THE HIT MEN
The Living Legacy of Classic Rock
“Don’t Stop Believin’.” “Feels Like the First Time.” “Eye in the Sky.” “Who Are You?” “I Want You to Want Me.” These aren’t just classic rock hits-they’re the soundtrack of our lives. Meet THE HIT MEN: the elite musicians who stood beside rock’s biggest stars and helped bring these iconic songs to audiences around the world. Having performed, toured, and recorded with legendary artists including Foreigner, Journey, Billy Joel, Elton John, Cheap Trick, Wings, The Who, Tommy James, and many more, these extraordinary musicians deliver more than 20 legendary hits with the authenticity, energy, and world-class musicianship that only the original touring and recording artists can provide. Combined with fascinating behind-the-scenes stories from life on the road and in the studio, THE HIT MEN give you an unforgettable, all-access pass to the golden age of classic rock.
