Todd Rundgren to Perform at BergenPAC, 11/16

Todd Rundgren will be performing live at the Bergen Performing Arts Center November 16 at 8PM. Todd Rundgren's Utopia , universally regarded as the progenitor of what became known as ProgRock, has reunited. They are touring for the first time in 35 years. Tickets are $69, $49, $39.

His solo career started out successfully with such hits as I Saw The Light and Hello It's Me (which was a reworked Nazz tune). He formed a band called Utopia (or Todd Rundgren's Utopia) which concentrated on eccentric progressive epics, while also continuing to release solo albums. His production work started early, with work for Sparks and the New York Dolls, and continued with Meat Loaf, XTC, The Psychedelic Furs, and many others.

A Wizard, A True Star, the title of an early solo album, succinctly describes founder/front man Todd Rundgren. Many of his solo albums, including Something/Anything were made completely by himself. That is, he played all the instruments, sang all the vocals, did all of the recording, editing, mixing, and mastering, and even distributed the album through his own record label, Bearsville. Rundgren has made a lasting impact on both the form and content of popular music and has along the way created a body of work that is among the most intriguing and impressive in Rock and Roll history.
