Happy 30/40, Mannheim Steamroller!

The symphonic pop group founded by producer/composer Chip Davis is marking 30 years since the release of its first Christmas album, Mannheim Steamroller Christmas, otherwise known as Christmas 1984. Plus, come Jan. 1, it will have been 40 years since the release of the act’s very first album, Fresh Aire.

As Mannheim Steamroller’s website punnily points out, fans should make sure and join the group “during this Extraordin-AIRE-y Mannheim Steamroller 30/40 year!”

Thanks to two touring companies handling the massive routing, Mannheim Steamroller has booked more than 70 gigs across the States.
