Burton Cummings and Randy Bachman Reuniting as The Guess Who for U.S. Tour
This marks their first performance as The Guess Who for the first time in 23 years.
Burton Cummings and Randy Bachman have announced an extensive U.S. headline tour, performing as The Guess Who for the first time in 23 years. Dubbed the Takin’ It Back Tour, the newly announced U.S. dates kick off June 25th at Mystic Lake Amphitheater in Minneapolis, MN, making stops in major markets including Chicago, Detroit, Boston, Atlanta, and Los Angeles, and will feature support from Don Felder (formerly of the Eagles).
Cummings comments, “Randy and I are incredibly grateful that our music has endured all these years. Knowing that people still want to hear these songs live means everything to us, and when we go out on stage, our goal is to truly honour the music.”
Bachman adds, “I’m really excited about reuniting with Burton and touring again as The Guess Who. We created an amazing body of work together, along with memories that have lasted for decades, and those songs are still as strong as ever. I can’t wait to sing them with everyone very soon.”
Tickets will be available via a Citi presale beginning on Wednesday, March 4th at 10 am local, followed by an artist presale on Wednesday, March 4th at 12 pm local. Additional presales will run throughout the week, leading up to the general onsale beginning on Friday, March 6th at 10am local here.
The Guess Who’s Takin’ It Back Tour will officially kick off in Canada, making stops in Toronto, Winnipeg, Calgary, Edmonton, and more. Dates are on sale now.

They’ve placed fourteen singles in the US Top 40 chart and more than thirty in Canada - rock & roll classics like “American Woman,” “These Eyes,” “No Sugar Tonight/New Mother Nature,” and “No Time.”
