John Popper, Blues Traveler’s frontman, doesn’t need a whole lot of introduction. The dude can rip a harmonica better than most guitar players can shred guitar.
He’s that good.
Along with Chan Kinchla (guitar), Tad Kinchla (bass), Brendan Hill(drums), and Ben Wilson (keyboard) the band has a proven reputation for their improvisational live shows and tireless touring.
With a total of twelve studio albums — four gold, three platinum and one six-times platinum — they have sold more than 10 million combined units worldwide, and played over 2,000 live shows in front of more than 30 million fans. Their hit “Run-Around” is the longest-charting radio single in Billboard history, and earned them a Grammy® for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals.
The band is headed to San Antonio for a show at the Aztec on Friday, November 9 and you should absolutely check them out if you haven’t already.
Tickets ($30-$52) are on sale now and can be purchased at theaztectheatre.net.
