Artist Bio

John Lodge, legendary bass player, songwriter and vocalist of The Moody Blues, and recent inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, is bringing his ‘Classic Moody Blues’ solo tour to the USA.

Following the incredible audience response to his appearance on ‘The Royal Affair’ Tour with YES, Asia and Carl Palmer during June and July 2019, John is now taking his ‘Classic Moody Blues’ show to a whole new level!  As ‘Beneath a Desert Sky’ recently said in a review of his show in Phoenix, If you love The Moody Blues music, then you really need to checkout John live.  He and the band put on a great show!

This new “Moody Blues’ John Lodge Performs Classic Moody Blues Hits” set will take this wonderful show even further and incorporate tributes to other members of his band, with other treats to be revealed on the night that are sure to delight fans and music lovers alike.  With the Moody Blues on hiatus, this is a unique opportunity to see John perform his Moody Blues’ hits and more, and, once more, experience the passion and energy of their music.  As John says, “I want to keep the Moody Blues music alive’!

This is a not-to-be-missed show full of beautifully crafted songs, great energy and sound, and a fantastic atmosphere that will ‘bring the audience to their feet’, and is a great opportunity to see this ‘rock legend’ and also ‘great guy’ perform in an intimate setting, up close and personal.

Joining John on stage are long term collaborator Alan Hewitt (Music Director and Keyboards) and Billy Ashbaugh (Drums) from the Moody Blues touring band, together with Duffy King (Guitars) and Jason Charboneau (Cello).

If you are new to the music of John Lodge, come and experience this incredible show, and see why his music has influenced musicians and fans for generations.  And, of course, if you love the Moodies you will love this show…

During his remarkable 52 years with the Moody Blues, Lodge has sold more than 70 million albums including the groundbreaking ‘Days of Future Passed’, and has composed many of their biggest hits.  The album ‘Seventh Sojurn’ was Billboard number 1 for 5 weeks, and Lodge wrote both the singles from this album, the high-energy “I’m Just a Singer (in a Rock and Roll Band)” and the beautiful and ethereal “Isn’t Life Strange”.   

John has received numerous awards including being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, ASCAP (American Society Of Composers & Publishers) and an Ivor Novello for Outstanding Contribution to Music, and he has been voted one of the 10 most influential bass players on the planet.

In John’s words, ‘Music is my life and I can’t wait to get on the road with the 10,000 Light Years Band… I am a ‘Moody Blue’, I always will be, and the fans and I have travelled this road a long time so I hope they will continue with me as we keep the Moody Blues music alive.  And I hope new fans will discover and explore along with us as we go B Yond’
