America Prep for 50th Anniversary World Tour

Soft rock band America are heading out on a world tour this year to celebrate their 50th anniversary as a group.

Consisting of 34 dates, the tour will begin in the U.S. and make a few stops in Canada before wrapping in Europe. The trek will span from late-February to mid-July, and stops include Milwaukee, Memphis, Orlando, San Antonio, Paris, London, and more.

Gerry Beckley, Dewey Bunnell, and the late Dan Peek debuted in 1971 with their self-titled album. Since then, they have released 20 albums and 47 singles, two of which were Billboard Hot 100 Number Ones.
