Биография

Foghat celebrated their 50th anniversary in 2021, and their live performances show why the band is still around and why they will keep on rockin’ for a long time! Their music is timeless, and touring is part of their DNA. Foghat’s live show is as intense as ever with the incredible energy and musicianship that one would expect and hope for from a seasoned band with such a long musical history. Nowadays, the audience is filled with fans of all ages. Kids who learned about Foghat from Guitar Hero III and their grandparents who bought their first Vinyl or 8 Track! Formed in 1971, Foghat has earned eight Gold records, one Platinum record and one Double-Platinum record. And they continue to release new music every few years. They sadly lost Lonesome Dave Peverett in 2000 and Rod Price in 2005, but Roger Earl kept banging & kicking to keep Foghat’s musical legacy going. Foghat’s thunderous blend of blues, boogie and butt-kickin’ rock ‘n’ roll are shaking walls and fans everywhere. Lead vocalist/lead guitarist Scott Holt played with Buddy Guy for over 10 years, and lead/slide guitarist Bryan Bassett played with Wild Cherry and Molly Hatchet. Bass player Rodney O’Quinn has been a great permanent addition, taking over for the late Craig Macgregor who had been with the band since the ‘70s. And on drums is the man we must thank for keeping Foghat going...founding member Roger Earl, who's positive attitude & solid drumming style and pure joy of playing has been an inspiration to all.
