Burton Cummings of The Original Guess Who & His Band
Burton Cummings, lead singer of the original The Guess Who and a successful solo artist, is set to tour the US beginning this September, marking his 60-year anniversary of making and releasing music.
In 1964, a 16-year-old Cummings released two singles as a member of The Deverons. Just two years later, he joined The Guess Who. It was with the original The Guess Who that Cummings’ signature vocals, along with his songwriting and keyboard prowess would fuel massively big hits around the world including “These Eyes,” “No Time,” “Laughing” and their biggest hit “American Woman.” The latter track topping the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks in 1970. Following the band's breakup in 1975, Cummings found solo success with “Stand Tall,” an international hit that spent 21 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #10.
Today, Cummings remains at the top of his game as an unrivaled singer, songwriter, showman, and recording artist. Don't miss your chance to see this music legend live!
"Get ready, America! This fall, my band and I are hitting the road for our US tour! It's been far too long, but we're finally bringing the music straight to your doorstep. Join us at a venue near you where we’ll be performing my hits from the original The Guess Who and my solo career from over the past 60 years!" - Burton Cummings
