January 9, 2020

Styx, the classic-rock giants, will be landing at The Saban theatre in Beverly Hills on January 12.

Original lead singer Tommy Shaw and the band have been averaging over 100 shows a year and bringing their energy that has been delighting fans for over four decades.

They'll be bringing their barn-burning chart hits, joyous sing-alongs, and hard-driving deep cuts. Like a symphony that builds to a satisfying crescendo, a Styx set covers a wide range of stylistic cornerstones.

From the progressively sweeping splendor that is "The Grand Illusion" to the hunker-down fortitude of all that is the "Blue Collar Man," from the majestic spiritual love for a special "Lady" to the seething indictment of preening, primping pageantry for pageantry's sake of "Miss America."

There'll be an individual yearning for true connection as a "Man in the Wilderness" to a soul-deep quest to achieve what's at the heart of one's personal vision in "Crystal Ball," from the regal reach-for-the-stars bravado of "Come Sail Away" to the grainy all-in gallop of that rugged "Renegade" who had it made.

The band draws on an unlimited cache of ways to immerse one's mind and body in their signature sound.
