“This is going to be a knock out combination of music and musicians,” Paul Rodgers said in a statement. “I’ve always been a Jeff Beck fan, who isn’t? He is in a league of his own. Ann Wilson has an amazing voice and is a brilliant songwriter.”
A frequent entry on “Best Living Guitar Player” lists, Jeff Beck is currently promoting his 2016 live album Jeff Beck: Live At The Hollywood Bowl. We have reports for 21 shows from Beck in 2016, which total more than $4 million in gross and 64,657 tickets moved. He played a co-headline tour with Buddy Guy that year and venue sizes varied pretty widely, but he ended up with an average gross of $196,719 per night.
Paul Rodgers, of Bad Company and The Firm, is celebrating 50 years since the formation of his first band Free. He also collaborated with Queen for a number of years. Rodgers hasn’t been great about reporting data recently, but we do know that he sold out Royal Albert Hall in May of last year and grossed $196,101.
Ann Wilson is still touring her 2016 album Beautiful Broken, though she will also be performing hits from her time with Heart. She had a busy year last year, mostly taking on theatres and a few fairs and clubs. A highlight was her performance at Capitol Theatre in Clearwater, Fla., which moved 700 tickets and grossed $55,656.
