ZZ Top to Play Van Wezel in April 2016

The Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall is proud to present the royalty of American blues rock legends ZZ Top on Wednesday, April 27th at 8pm. "That Little ol' Band from Texas" is at it again. More than 46 years after their formation in the Houston area, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees ZZ Top are hitting the road between mid-March and early May of next year. The Hell Raisers Tour, follows this year's wildly successful Groove & Gravy Tour with Blackberry Smoke

ZZ Top is notable for having the most consistently stable lineup in the history of rock music. Singer/guitarist Billy F Gibbons, bassist/singer Dusty Hill and drummer Frank Beard continue to impress audiences, drawing material from their 15 studio albums, with combined record sales of over 25 million in the U.S. alone. Timeless hits like "La Grange," "Legs," "Sharp Dressed Man" and "Beer Drinkers & Hell Raisers" (from which the tour was named) have kept generations of audiences coming back decade after decade.

Billy Gibbons expressed enthusiasm for the upcoming tour most eloquently, "ZZ is comin' at'cha with the 2016 Hell Raisers Tour. We are getting the road ready and know you, too, are ready to rock. Gonna be a good, good time. Make that a 'good LOUD time!'"
