THIS CONCERT IS SOLD OUT.
Northern California's four-time Grammy Award-winning Doobie Brothers' sound has become part of America's musical firmament, sampled on dance records, reinterpreted on "American Idol" and a fixture on radio formats from top 40 to classic rock. They continue to write and record new material, and tour the world, boasting one of the most loyal fan bases in music, all while breaking new creative ground in the exploration of their musical connection with Nashville.
The Doobies have rung up an impressive track record beginning with their multi-million-selling sophomore collection "Toulouse Street" (1972), and have 3 multi-platinum, 7 platinum and 14 gold albums. Their "Best of the Doobies" (1976) has sold more than 11 million copies–a rare "diamond record." The Doobies propulsive roots-based, harmony-laden, guitar-driven style has sold more than 30 million albums.
Their No. 1 singles "Black Water" (1974) and "What a Fool Believes" (1979), both gold, lead a catalog of indelible songs that include "Jesus Is Just All Right," "Rockin' Down the Highway," "Long Train Runnin'," "China Grove," "Take Me In Your Arms," "Takin' It To the Streets," "Minute by Minute," "You Belong to Me," "The Doctor" and more. In all, the Doobies have tallied up five top 10 singles and 16 top 40 hits.
The years have witnessed many changes in the Doobies, but the band's most recent studio lineup harkens back to its earliest days. Patrick Simmons and Tom Johnston continue to front the group. And multi-instrumentalist John McFee's history with the Brothers dates back to 1978.
"We're basically an American band—we cover a lot of areas," says Johnston. "We cover blues, R&B, country, bluegrass, rock 'n' roll. It's based on rhythms, rhythm structures, picking and harmonies. That's been the signature of the band."
