A history of hits, a desire to rock, and having fun doing it, have brought Pat Benatar and REO Speedwagon together for the LOVE ON THE RUN Tour. Four-time Grammy winner with six platinum albums, and hit singles like “Hit Me With Your Best Shot,” “Shadows of the Night,” “Heartbreaker,” and “Love is a Battlefield” have made Pat Benatar a leading female rock vocalist of the 80’s and a true rock legend. Touring for more than thirty years and still going strong, Benatar has been married to guitarist, songwriter, producer, collaborator and soul mate, Neil Giraldo.

For decades, iconic vocalist, Kevin Cronin, has led REO Speedwagon to dozens of albums, thousands of concerts, with eyes always on the future. Celebrating the 30th anniversary this year of the popular Hi Infidelity album, REO Speedwagon will feature hits like “Take It on the Run,” “Keep on Loving You,” “Can’t Stop Rockin’, and “Can’t Fight This Feelin.” Band members include Dave Amato, Bruce Hall, Neal Doughty, and Bryan Hitt.
