So come celebrate Boombox, (which critics are calling our best album ever), the power of rock n roll and the magic of Fozzy LIVE with us again this fall! And bring your party hats…you’re gonna need em!”

After touring the world and building a loyal fanbase for the better part of twenty years, Fozzy — Chris Jericho (lead vocals), Rich Ward (guitar, vocals), Billy Grey (guitar), PJ Farley (bass), Grant Brooks (Drums) — is the epitome of what a killer rock n roll band should be: catchy, groovy, hooky, sweaty, and most importantly, a great effen time! In addition to their own successful headline tours, Fozzy has also shared the stage in recent years with the likes of Metallica, KISS, Iron Maiden, Avenged Sevenfold,Shinedown, Slash, Three Days Grace, and many more. These five seasoned pros light up every stage they play on with their electricity and charisma, making Fozzy one of the hottest rock acts in the world today. And now with six consecutive Top 20 singles, Fozzy is steadily becoming one of the most successful bands on Modern Rock Radio.

“Boombox” is a strong album, these guys are really starting to hit their stride. Seen them twice now in concert, always a fun show. Love the addition of PJ Farley to the band.
I was surprised they covered the Frankie goes to Hollywood “Relax.”
Considering the star of world Two tribes would have been much better.
Charles,
I always really liked Relax, I felt it had some serious groove. Another really good 80s new wave song that they could have covered, would have been Druran Duran’s Hungry Like The Wolf.
