Steve Miller Band & Joe Cocker

Initially a fixture in San Francisco's "Summer of Love" scene as leader of the Steve Miller Band, the Texas-bred singer, songwriter and guitarist used his blues/rock roots to transcend the psychedelic trend and develop his own enduring sound. In the ensuing decades, Miller has toured consistently and seen his songs covered by artists as diverse as Smashing Pumpkins, deftones, Seal, Run-D.M.C. and k.d. lang. The band's Greatest Hits 1974-1978 has been certified platinum 13 times. Cumulatively, the Steve Miller Band has sold 25 million records since 1968's Children of the Future. Joe Cocker possesses one of the world's most instantly recognizable and iconic voices. He burst into the scene by injecting hystericized soul into everything he touched, namely the Beatles' "With A Little Help From My Friends." "You Are So Beautiful" and his Top 10 hit "Up Where We Belong" continue to be pop music favorites. The uniformly blues/gospel-ish material on his latest release Hymn for My Soul spans the decades. Steve Miller Band will close this concert.
