John Waite (Headliner) - John will be performing his catalogue of hits from his 40 year career as a solo artist, and with The Baby’s and Bad English. John Waite’s catalogue of hits features some of the most loved songs of the 80s and 90s – the #1 Worldwide hit "Missing You", The Baby’s "Isn't It Time" and Bad English's "When I See You Smile" rank amongst some of his biggest international hits and are still heard on radio today. Others include "Everytime I Think of You", "Back On My Feet Again", "Midnight Rendezvous", "Tears", "Change" and "These Times Are Hard For Lovers". "Every Step Of The Way" and "If Anybody Had A Heart" which appeared on the soundtrack to the 1986 Demi Moore film About Last Night. "Deal for Life", penned by Martin Page and Bernie Taupin, was featured in the Days Of Thunder soundtrack. As a solo artist and as the lead singer of The Baby’s and Bad English, John Waite was a fixture of album-oriented rock radio stations during the '70s and '80s. John Waite had a talent for power ballads and driving arena rock, occasionally touching on new wave-styled power pop as well. - http://www.johnwaiteworldwide.com/
Cole Allen (Opening Act) - Cole Allen, critically acclaimed solo artist and guitarist for the Sena Ehrhardt Band, is without a doubt one of the most exciting singer/guitarist/songwriters of contemporary blues and rock music. Allen was born and raised in Minneapolis, MN, but has made Rochester his home for the last decade. At age 13, he received a guitar for his birthday and started a band of his own only a year later. In the early 2000's, Allen burst on to the Twin Cities music scene with his power trio, Cole Allen Band, and quickly made a name for himself as one of the most promising young gun guitarists in the Midwest. In the decade that followed, the Cole Allen Band toured extensively, and notably opened for Bret Michaels, LA Guns, The Charlie Daniels Band, Bobby Rush, Becky Barksdale, Frank Hannon of Tesla, Corey Stevens, and The Godfather of British Blues: John Mayall. Cole Allen’s songwriting, described by many as mature well beyond his years, and masterful guitar playing was showcased on his debut 2012 EP “Headed For Hollywood.” - http://www.coleallen.net/
