Classic Rock Favorites America Come to the Weinberg Center for the Arts this March
America's songs were the cornerstones of 1970's Top 40 and FM rock radio
FREDERICK, Md., Jan. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Perennial classic-rock favorite, America, bring their 50th Anniversary tour to the Weinberg Center for the Arts in Frederick, Maryland on Saturday, March 12, 2022 at 7:30 PM. America 50th Anniversary is presented by Latshaw Productions Inc.

Founding members, Gerry Beckley and Dewey Bunnell (along with former band mate, the late Dan Peek) met in high school in London in the late 1960s and quickly harmonized their way to the top of the charts on the strength of their signature song "A Horse With No Name." America became a global household name and paved the way with an impressive string of hits following the success of their first #1 single. Their best-known tunes, which also include "I Need You," "Ventura Highway," "Don't Cross The River," "Tin Man," "Lonely People," and "Sister Golden Hair" were cornerstones of 1970's Top 40 and FM rock radio. America's albums--six certified gold and/or platinum, with their first greatest hits collection, History, hitting four plus million in sales--display a fuller range of the trio's talents than their singles. The material encompassed an ambitious artistic swath; from effects-laden rockers to oddball medleys to soul-bearing ballads, America displays a flawless blend of disparate genres and styles.
