(fcc) Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Grammy Award-winning band Chicago will celebrate their 56th consecutive year of touring this year on the road, where the 10-piece has been since the world returned from the pandemic. The legendary and astoundingly enduring band is the first American rock band to chart Top 40 albums in six consecutive decades. With unparalleled longevity, the band has never missed a year.

After an incredible 38 albums Chicago's uniquely timely and timeless music unites multiple generations of fans. The now 10-man band is touring for the duration of 2023 and continues to sell out venues night after night. After 56 years, the founding members Robert Lamm, Lee Loughnane and James Pankow continue to drive the band into new territory - while staying true to the hits (so many hits) their fans come again and again to see. They released their 38th studio album Born For This Moment last year, as well as The Last Band On Stage, a documentary film about the never-not-touring band's experience during the pandemic (and onstage the night the world shut down).

The iconic band's accolades and honors include two Grammy Awards, two American Music Awards, Founding Artists of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, The Recording Academy's Lifetime Achievement Award, induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, a Chicago street dedicated in their honor and keys to and proclamations from an impressive list of US cities. Record sales for Chicago top the 100,000,000 mark and include 21 Top 10 singles, 5 consecutive Number One albums, 11 Number One singles and 5 Gold singles. An incredible 25 of their 38 albums have been certified platinum. The original three band members are Robert Lamm on keyboards and vocals, Lee Loughnane on trumpet and vocals and James Pankow on trombone. The band line-up also includes Wally Reyes, Jr. on drums, Tony Obrohta on guitar, Loren Gold on keyboards and vocals, Ray Herrmann on sax and flute, Neil Donell on vocals, Brett Simons on bass and Ramon "Ray" Yslas on percussion.

Chicago is currently on tour in North America and will be performing through the end of the year. For more information and to purchase tickets please visit: www.chicagotheband.com.
