Legendary performer Roger Daltrey will bring his A Great Night Out Tour to the Artpark Mainstage Theater on Sept. 17.
Rock legend Sir Roger Daltrey announced a run of U.S. solo tour dates, celebrating his return two years after his widely praised Semi-Acoustic 2024 Summer outing, and well-rested from the acclaimed Who farewell tour which critics hailed as ‘a powerful reminder of just how vital the band is to the rock canon.’
The recently knighted rock stalwart will be backed by the same musical lineup he performed with on his 2024 tour, featuring a hand-picked ensemble of musicians. Simon Townshend – guitar, Billy Nicholls – mandolin, Jody Linscott – percussion, Doug Boyle – guitar, John Hogg – bass, Katie Jacoby – violin, Steve Weston – harmonica, Geraint Watkins – keyboards/accordion and Scott Devours – drums.
Tour producers say the 2026 dates will spotlight Daltrey’s unmistakable voice and deep catalog, blending iconic selections from his remarkable solo material, reimagined cover songs and Who rarities.
Daltrey will be building on the momentum of his 2024 performances, which were widely celebrated for their acoustic intimacy, storytelling, and enduring vocal presence, with Daltrey also offering up renditions of songs seldom performed live by The Who or Daltrey.
The 2024 tour drew raves, with USA Today commenting, “Put Roger Daltrey on a stage and he’s going to rock” and Forbes calling attention to the casual interplay of songs and stories delivered by a relaxed and funny Daltrey – “witty, charming, and engaging. An absolute masterclass…’’ The upcoming shows promise another fresh, revealing glimpse of the charismatic singer, with more banter and straight-shooting rapport as he continues to reign as one of rock’s most commanding live performers.
Daltrey was honored with a knighthood, by The Prince of Wales at Windsor Castle, this past December for his contribution to charity and music. Daltrey launched and curated the Teenage Cancer Trust concerts initiative at the Royal Albert Hall which has raised millions for the charity over the past 25 years.
