When SAIL ROCK docks on the banks of the beautiful Fox River at Aurora's new RiverEdge Park on Saturday, August 10, seven great music artists will share the stage for one unforgettable night, with a set list that plays like a soundtrack to the summers of the 70's and early 80's.

SAIL ROCK stars Grammy Winner Christopher Cross, best known for his Top Ten hits "Sailing," "Ride Like the Wind" and "Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)." This first-ever, feel-good music tour also features rockers Firefall with top 40 hits "Just Remember I Love You," "You Are the Woman" and "Strange Way." Dance with your sweetheart to Orleans and their Top 10 hits "Dance with Me" and "Still The One." Gary Wright, whose "Dream Weaver" and "Love Is Alive" spent time at the #2 spot on Billboard's Hot 100 in 1976, joins the lineup along with Grammy nominated John Ford Coley, whose triple-platinum and gold records include "I'd Really Love to See You Tonight" and "Love is the Answer." Rounding out the bill are Robbie DuPree, remembered for his 1980 Top 10 hit "Steal Away," and Player with their #1 hit "Baby Come Back."
