WEST VALLEY CITY, Utah, Dec. 7, 2024 (Gephardt Daily) — Rock band Styx and REO Speedwagon singer Kevin Cronin have announced they will join forces for the upcoming Brotherhood of Rock tour, coming to Utah on June 11.

The tour also will feature Don Felder, formerly of The Eagles. The Utah concert will be at the Utah First Credit Union Amphitheatre.

General tickets for the tour, produced by Live Nation, will go on sale starting Friday, Dec. 13 at 10 a.m. local time at LiveNation.com. Styx and Kevin Cronin will be offering VIP packages via their own exclusive pre-sales beginning Tuesday, December 10 at 10 a.m. local time, as well as at LiveNation.com.

Styx and Kevin Cronin (as part of REO Speedwagon) first toured together in 2000 and in 2001 after the 9/11 attacks, they came together to form the Rock to the Rescue, a nonprofit organization that still collects donations for local charities at every stop on Styx’s on-going tour.

Styx, formed in 1972 Chicago, draws from over five decades of chart hits, including “Lady,” “Come Sail Away,” “Blue Collar Man” and “Renegade.”

Cronin continues to be joined onstage by lead guitarist Dave Amato and drummer Bryan Hitt, who have played in REO Speedwagon since 1989. Additionally, Derek Hilland, who previously toured with Rick Springfield and Whitesnake, has been REO’s keyboard player since January 2023. Matt Bissonette, who spent 12 years with Elton John through 2023, signed on as REO Speedwagon’s touring bassist in November of that year.

Cronin wrote or co-wrote such REO hits as  “Keep On Loving You,” “Keep the Fire Burnin,” and “Can’t Fight This Feeling.”
