America Brings Their Classic Hits To The Hanover Theatre

Grammy Award-winning band, America, marks their 50th anniversary with a live concert at The Hanover Theatre and Conservatory for the Performing Arts on Saturday, March 23 at 8 pm. Tickets are on sale to members now and go on sale to the general public on Friday, December 14 at 10 am.

Founding members, Gerry Beckley and Dewey Bunnell, along with former band mate Dan Peek, met in high school in London in the late 1960s and quickly harmonized their way to the top of the charts on the strength of their signature song, "A Horse With No Name." Following the success of their first number one single, America became a global household name with an impressive string of hits, including "Sister Golden Hair," "Tin Man" and "Lonely People." Fifty years later, the perennial classic-rock favorite is still making music together, touring the world and thrilling audiences with their timeless sound.

Tickets for America start at $35. Discounts are available to members of The Hanover Theatre and groups of 10 or more. Tickets are available online at TheHanoverTheatre.org, by phone at 877.571.SHOW (7469) or at The Hanover Theatre box office located at 2 Southbridge Street in downtown Worcester.
