The following is a news release from Mountain America Center.
IDAHO FALLS — Rock legends Styx and Loverboy are teaming up for a must-see tour, promising fans an unforgettable evening of classic hits and electrifying performances.
They will be making a stop at Mountain America Center in Idaho Falls on Saturday, Nov. 8. Tickets start at $44.50 plus applicable fees and go on sale Friday, April 4, at 10 a.m. on Ticketmaster.com.
The seven men comprising Styx — James “JY” Young (lead vocals, guitars), Tommy Shaw (lead vocals, guitars), Chuck Panozzo (bass, vocals), Todd Sucherman (drums, percussion), Lawrence Gowan (lead vocals, keyboards), CRASH OF THE CROWN producer and co-writer Will Evankovich (guitars), Terry Gowan (bass, vocals) — have committed to rocking the Paradise together with audiences far and wide by entering their second decade of averaging 100 shows a year, and each one of them is committed to making the next show better than the last.
Styx draws from over five decades of barn-burning chart hits, joyous singalongs, and hard-driving deep cuts. Like a symphony that builds to a satisfying crescendo, a Styx set covers a wide range of stylistic cornerstones.
From the progressively sweeping splendor that is “The Grand Illusion” to the hunker-down fortitude of all that is the “Blue Collar Man,” from the regal reach- for-the-stars bravado of “Come Sail Away” to the grainy all-in gallop of that rugged “Renegade” who had it made, the band draws on an unlimited cache of ways to immerse one’s mind and body in their signature sound.
After more than two decades together on the road, this incarnation of Styx is looking forward to performing as many shows as it can as long as it can.
“Music is this amazing force that comes from a higher place. I’m humbled for this band to have the great success that it has,” says co-founding guitarist/vocalist James “JY” Young.
