Train and REO Speedwagon are going on tour together this summer and the tour is coming to Connecticut.
The Summer Road Trip 2024 Tour is a 44-city tour and it will be at Xfinity Theatre in Hartford on Saturday, Aug. 3.
Yacht Rock Revue will be joining them.
“When I was younger I heard a band called REO Speedwagon and fell in love with their numerous, infectious hit songs. Years later I met Kevin Cronin, and thank goodness he’s as great a person as he is a songwriter,” Train’s Pat Monahan said in a statement. “This tour won’t just be a great time with great people, but a tour that will have a ton of familiar songs to most generations. I will be wishing I was in the audience as much as I’ll love being on the stage.”
