Roger Daltrey and The Who band with guest Edgar Winter

As lead singer of The Who, Roger Daltrey has lent his Olympian pipes to a staggering array of enduring rock ‘n roll anthems like “I Can’t Explain,” “Baba O’ Riley,” “Who Are You,” “Won’t Get Fooled Again,” “I Can See for Miles,” “Pinball Wizard,” “Behind Blue Eyes” and “Love, Reign o’er Me.” Daltrey’s substantial solo discography includes acclaimed albums Daltrey, Ride a Rock Horse, Under a Raging Moon and the soundtrack for the film McVicar, among others and hit singles such as “Giving It All Away,” “Without Your Love,” “Free Me” and “After the Fire.” Daltrey has also appeared onstage aside from performing as a rock vocalist. He played the Tin Man in a production of The Wizard of Oz at The Lincoln Center and he starred as Scrooge in A Christmas Carol at Madison Square Garden. Additional acting credits include assuming the role of Tommy Walker in Ken Russell’s movie adaptation of The Who’s Tommy, for which Daltrey received a Golden Globe nomination, playing composer Franz Liszt in Russell’s Lisztomania, playing the title role in McVicar and numerous other roles in various films and TV shows. Daltrey also co-founded and remains committed to his philanthropies Teenage Cancer Trust and Teen Cancer America.

The members of The Who band performing with Roger Daltrey will be Simon Townshend, Jon Button, Scott Devours, Loren Gold and Frank Simes. Together they will play classic Who hits, rarely-performed Who songs and choice picks from Roger Daltrey’s solo work.

By the time Edgar Winter left his hometown of Beaumont, Texas in the 1960s, he was already technically proficient in every aspect of music. A child prodigy who achieved international success early on, Winter has found an audience in every major entertainment medium – music, film and television. A prolific writer, Winter’s music encompasses many different genres, including rock, jazz, blues, and pop. From his critically acclaimed 1970 debut release, Entrance, Winter has demonstrated his unique style and ability to cross the genre lines and do the unexpected. His recording of “Tobacco Road” is a powerful, emotionally devastating masterpiece that propelled him into the national spotlight. Other Winter classic recordings include the number one “Frankenstein” and the ever popular “Free Ride.” With over 20 albums and numerous collaborative efforts to his credit, Winter has not been satisfied to ride the wave of popular music stardom. Major national television and radio campaigns have relied on Winter’s music to advertise their products. Winter has also made frequent television appearances and his music can be heard in no fewer than 15 film and television projects including the recent recently released film Tupac Resurrection, where his hauntingly beautiful song “Dying to Live” was featured as “Runnin’ (Dying to Live).”
