About

HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS IN CONCERT:

Following their successful 2013 Sports Anniversary Tour, '80s pop rock icons Huey Lewis and the News thrilled fans with the announcement of additional dates in 2014. Renowned for their stellar musicianship and the charisma of frontman Huey Lewis, the band has become a live favorite for their rollicking sets of upbeat '80s classics.

FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:

“Huey Lewis and the News is still the heart of Rock and Roll. Huey still manages to have the crowd on their feet and sounds absolutely the same as he always does.”

“Huey Lewis still has the energy and passion that he had in the 1980s…No frills, just the music. Huey engages the crowd nicely. It was a magnificent show!”

“They rocked a packed house for a good long time…A great mixture of vocals, guitar, horns, and harmonica. They played all of the favorites, along with some new ones, and kept the crowd on their feet the whole show.”

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

After their songs “The Power of Love” and “Back in Time” were both featured prominently in the 1985 sci-fi classic Back to the Future, Huey Lewis and the News were all but assured a place as one of the most defining acts of the decade. They delivered on that promise, topping the album charts with Sports in 1983 and Fore! in 1986 and racking up some of the era's seminal hits with “I Want a New Drug,” “Hip to Be Square,” and “Stuck With You."

    Huey Lewis and the News was fantastic!

    by Anonymous on 9/10/17Genesee Theatre - Waukegan

    Huey Lewis was fantastic! Played all our favorites! The warm up band (RADA RADA) on the other hand was just ok. The bass player seemed to be having problems with amplifier feedback and we found it to be very annoying. I don't know if that was normal for them, but they really need to adjust that bass sound.

    Definitely the "Heart of Rock and Roll"!

    by Chiculture on 9/10/17Genesee Theatre - Waukegan

    Great show. What an entertaining guy! Still got it. Voice sounds good and the band is top notch. A lot of fun and upbeat. It was great to just have a fun night of entertainment with some great songs that we know. If you grew up in the 80's, or even listened to the radio then, can't help but know their songs. LOve the sense of humor too! Did all the hits plus some new songs such as, "While We're Young". And a couple of doo wop style songs from a newer album. All good!

    Huey Lewis and the News -Amazing!

    by lde57 on 9/10/17Genesee Theatre - Waukegan

    Because the Genesee Theater is a more intimate venue, it made the concert feel up close and personal. The encore was great and I think they performed longer than they had planned. I would definitely see them again at this venue.

    A Blast From the Past and Today!!

    by TGarlic37 on 9/10/17Genesee Theatre - Waukegan

    There is no stopping Huey Lewis and the News!! The Genesee Theatre was the perfect venue for the powerful precision of the News, and the raspy sweetness of Huey's voice. The songs are timeless and the rapport with the intimate crowd was just what us lucky fans wanted. This is what a show is supposed to be!!

    GREAT Show!

    by TJEisen on 9/10/17Genesee Theatre - Waukegan

    This was the fifth time we've seen Huey Lewis and The News, they're ALWAYS great! Wish the show was a little bit longer, there were many hit songs we didn't get to hear

    still great!!!

    by smto on 9/10/17Genesee Theatre - Waukegan

    It was hard to hear him over the band. Why do sound engineers do this? His conversation was funny and easily understood. We'll go to our 3rd Huey concert if he returns to the area.

    Huey Lewis still pulls it off

    by FoosballFreak on 9/3/17The Tulalip Amphitheatre - Tulalip

    Huey Lewis is as entertaining as ever. Great to see them again. The Tulalip Amphitheater is a great place to view a concert on a sunny day. My only complaint was the Karaoke act that opened for them. Playing recorded music from a data file and singing over it is not why I come to a live concert. I can see that in any bar any night of the week.

    Huey and The News rockin' with the best of them

    by drumstud on 8/18/17The Pacific Amphitheatre - Costa Mesa

    The timeless quality of their songs and the fact that they are all such seasoned pro players made for a memorable occasion when Huey and the boys rocked Orange County on Aug 3. I've been a fan of the band since I first saw them perform in 1983 and they still deliver the same high-energy, no-nonsense musical show that they did in their heyday. The whole band performed brilliantly but the (usually) subdued drummer, Bill Gibson was really on fire that night; helping drive what was probably the best of 7 shows I've seen ranging from '83 til now. Other honorable mentions go to incredible lead guitarist and vocalist Stef Burns and saxist, vocalist, and rhythm guitarist Johnny Colla for their stellar solo work. All I can say is, if you have the opportunity to see this band and you don't take it, you must be a dim bulb because this is one of the finest examples of a truly professional band as you're gonna get...

    Incredible!

    by DMini on 8/15/17Thunder Valley Casino Resort - Lincoln

    Huey Lewis and the News blew me away! Awesome performances, incredible energy and great interaction with the crowd. The show was everything I'd hoped it'd be and more. Greg Kihn was awesome too. Loved this show from start to end.
