Styx
with special guest Cheap Trick
Styx returns to The BayCare Sound with special guest Cheap Trick!
Styx has forged an indelible legacy both on record and onstage. The seven men comprising STYX have committed to rocking the Paradise together with audiences far and wide, and each one of them is committed to making the next show better than the last. They draw from over five decades of barn burning chart hits such as Renegade, Lady, and Come Sail Away. Styx hit its stride with guitarist/vocalist Tommy Shaw’s first LP with the band, 1976’s Crystal Ball, and then they become the first group to score four triple-platinum albums in a row: The Grand Illusion (1977), Pieces of Eight (1978), Cornerstone (1979), and Paradise Theater (1981). Styx recently released their highly anticipated 18th studio album this year, Circling from Above, with 13 tracks hailed by critics as their third "masterpiece" album in a row following Crash of the Crown (2021) and The Mission (2017).
Cheap Trick has been rocking stages with their timeless sound for over five decades. Known for their electrifying live performances, catchy melodies, and innovative songwriting, Cheap Trick has become a staple in rock music history. With hits like I Want You to Want Me, Dream Police, The Flame and Surrender, this legendary band continues to inspire and entertain audiences with their signature blend of hard rock and power-pop sensibilities. Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016, Cheap Trick maintain an almost constant touring schedule, having performed live more than 5,000 times since their formation, selling more than 20 million albums and building a dedicated cult following.
