Cheap Trick tour

Experience Rock Legends Live with TicketPurchase.com

Performer Information

Few bands in music history have left as indelible a mark on rock as Cheap Trick. Formed in 1973 in Rockford, Illinois, the band’s classic lineup came together with founding members Robin Zander, Rick Nielsen, Tom Petersson, and Bun E. Carlos — and the Cheap Trick tour continues to bring that legacy to stages worldwide. They rose to international fame with the electrifying Cheap Trick at Budokan live recordings, ultimately selling over 20 million albums worldwide. Their bestselling release, Cheap Trick at Budokan, moved over 3 million copies in the U.S. alone.

Honored with induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016, Cheap Trick’s impact stretches across generations. Their sound blends the melodic pull of 1960s pop with the horsepower of 1970s hard rock, earning a Grammy nomination and cementing their influence on power pop and alternative acts. Hooks, harmonies, and high-voltage guitars define a catalog that’s both timeless and unmistakable.

Current Band Members

• Robin Zander — lead vocals, rhythm guitar

A founding member with one of rock’s most distinctive voices, Zander anchors every chorus with charisma and power. His performances are a masterclass in frontman presence and melodic control.

• Rick Nielsen — lead guitar, backing vocals

A founding member and principal songwriter, Nielsen fuels the show with flamboyant guitar work and signature checkerboard flair. His riffs, stage antics, and deep songcraft are central to Cheap Trick’s identity.

• Tom Petersson — bass guitar, backing vocals

A founding member credited with introducing the 12‑string bass to rock, Petersson gives Cheap Trick its muscular, melodic low end. After a brief hiatus in the 1980s, he returned and remains vital to their sound.

• Daxx Nielsen — drums, percussion

Joining in 2010, Daxx drives the band’s modern era with propulsive, precise drumming. As Rick’s son, he honors the group’s legacy while bringing fresh energy to the studio and stage.

Former and Legacy Members

• Bun E. Carlos — drums, percussion (1973–2010)

A founding member whose steady groove powered the classic albums; inducted with the band into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He stopped touring with the group in 2010 but remains an official member for business purposes.

• Jon Brant — bass guitar (1981–1987)

Stepped in during Petersson’s absence and contributed to several albums and tours, including the hit album One on One.

• Pete Comita — bass guitar (1980–1981)

Briefly replaced Petersson, appearing on recordings and live dates.

• Randy Hogan — bass guitar (early 1970s)

An early member before the classic lineup solidified.

Their catalog spans era-defining hits — from the sing‑along rush of “I Want You to Want Me” and “Surrender” to the chart‑topping power ballad “The Flame” and the swagger of “Dream Police.” Albums like Dream Police, Lap of Luxury, and the seminal Cheap Trick at Budokan showcase a band equally at home delivering razor‑sharp pop hooks and roaring hard rock.

On stage, Cheap Trick deliver high‑energy performances packed with playful showmanship and crowd connection. Expect Rick Nielsen’s barrage of custom guitars and flying picks, Robin Zander’s arena‑ready vocals, and big, communal sing‑alongs — the kind of night fans talk about for years.
