Hitting the road in North America this year is Leonid and Friends, the YouTube sensation tribute band to Chicago, Earth Wind & Fire and others, from Eastern Europe! Despite never having seen Chicago live (they never toured to band leader Leonid Vorobyev's home country of Russia), the group became a global hit for their stunning recreation of the music of the legendary American soft-rockers.

Singer-songwriter Don McLean has more than his fair share of great songs to his name, but one stands head and shoulder above the others. Released in 1971, the epic 'American Pie' remains one of the great tracks in popular music history. Expect to hear that and more on one of McLean's live dates this year.

Toast: The Ultimate Bread Experience is the world's premier tribute to the '70s soft rock band, Bread! With an uncanny ability to recreate the band's signature sound, Toast delivers pitch-perfect renditions of Bread classics including "Baby I'm-a Want You", "Make It With You", "If", and "Everything I Own". Evoking the warmth of the original recordings with remarkable authenticity, you'll be transported right back to the golden era of mellow rock!

Michael Schenker's virtuosic shredding has influenced an entire generation of metal music makers. The Blonde Bomber first rose to attention during his stint as a founding member of heavy metal icons the Scorpions, before taking up a tenure with prog rock experimenters UFO. Don't miss the living legend as he tours stateside this year, with plenty of special guest in tow!

The Canadian singer-songwriter with a lion's mane, Gino Vannelli has been evolving his musical style since his debut in 1973. From soft rock, to jazz, to blue-eyed soul, the talented muso has left no musical stone unturned and it's difficult to pin him down to just one genre. With an astounding 19 albums under his belt, most of which made it into the Billboard charts, Vanelli is a living legend.

With a music career spanning 4 decades, Three Dog Night have certainly earned the right to be one of America's most iconic bands. With a vast back catalogue of smash hits like "Mama Told Me (Not To Come)", "Joy to the World", "Black and White", "Shambala" and "One" it would be easy for Three Dog Night to rest on this legacy, however, this band is not one for taking a break and are always looking for new ways to increase their audience.
