Styx was one of the biggest album rock bands of the late 70s, capable of producing monster hits with their stadium rock, power ballads, and albums. More than any other art-rock band, Styx was able to cross over into the pop charts, scoring hits with "Babe," "Lady," "Come Sail Away," "Too Much Time On My Hands," "Renegade," and "Don't Let it End." Styx is the first band to have four consecutive albums certified multi-platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America and will be playing for 90 minutes at the show.
38 Special was formed in 1977 and is still together more than 25 years later. Best known for their hits "Hold on Loosely," "If I'd Been the One," and "Caught up in You," the band still has fans loyal to their distinctively Southern brand of rock 'n' roll. Formed by Donnie Van Zant, whose brother Ronnie was a founder of Lynyrd Skynyrd, 38 Special pumped out what a Rolling Stone writer called "the prototype of country-fried, down home, Southern style, rock 'n' roll." With gold and platinum albums, top-ten hits, and sold-out stadium tours, 38 Special will also play for 90 minutes on the Calvert Marine Museum pavilion stage.
Opening for these two legends is 16-year-old guitar prodigy, Tyler Dow Bryant. His sound is featured in an upcoming film called "Rock Prophecies" alongside legends such as Santana, Def Leppard, and ZZ Top. Bryant's performance, combined with Styx and 38 Special is a 3-hour show and will be a night to remember!
Gates open at 5:30 p.m. - Show time is 7:00 p.m. Food and drinks will be available, and coolers are not allowed. Tickets are $50 for premium seats and $40 for reserved; additional service fees apply. There are no refunds or exchanges. For additional information and to purchase tickets, please visit the CMM website at www.calvertmarinemuseum.com.
