Foghat: The Palace Theatre

FOGHAT TWANG & BANG 2026 TOUR – NO ‘SLOW RIDE’ FOR THESE BOYS! It is 2026 and after 55 years, Foghat is still going as strong as ever! Last year, they celebrated 50 years of “Slow Ride,” the timeless anthem that put them on the global map and has not let up since. Born in 1971 when Roger Earl and Lonesome Dave Peverett left Savoy Brown to carve their own path, Foghat quickly found their groove—and fans found a band they could crank up loud and boogie too. It all exploded in 1975 with Fool for the City, their double-platinum masterpiece featuring the now-legendary track “Slow Ride.” Just two years later, Foghat Live went multi-platinum and cemented their rep as one of rock’s most electrifying live bands. Half a century later, Foghat is still riding high. Their latest album, Sonic Mojo, dropped in November 2023 and blasted straight to #1 on the Billboard Blues Chart, staying in the Top 10 for 34 weeks. Critics raved about the record’s blend of blues, boogie, and rock swagger, with standout praise for slide guitar ace Bryan Bassett, powerhouse lead singer/guitarist Scott Holt, groove-master bassist Rodney O’Quinn, and the relentless force behind the kit—founding drummer Roger Earl. Rock and Blues Muse hailed the band’s ability to breathe new life into the blues. Blues Rock Review scored Sonic Mojo a 9/10, spotlighting Bassett’s searing guitar work. 100% Rock Magazine praised their precision and swagger, while Front Row Report called the album “a blast of fun, perfect for any road trip.” Foghat’s fanbase now spans generations. Whether you first heard “Slow Ride” blasting from your older brother’s stereo, playing on Guitar Hero III, or scoring scenes in Dazed & Confused or Top Gun: Maverick, the band’s infectious energy keeps pulling people in. Boomers to Gen Z, everyone shows up for the party—and Foghat brings it every single night. The current lineup is a mix of legacy and fresh fire: Roger Earl – Founding drummer and heartbeat of the band. Bryan Bassett – Slide guitar
