The Marshall Tucker Band 50th Anniversary Tour with Special Guest Dave Mason
The Marshall Tucker Band 50th Anniversary Tour with Special Guest Dave Mason

The Marshall Tucker Band is heading out on their 50th Anniversary Tour with a stop at the Peoria Civic Center on March 10, 2022. 

The Marshall Tucker Band came together as a young, hungry, and quite driven six-piece outfit in Spartanburg, South Carolina in 1972, having duly baptized themselves with the name of a blind piano tuner after they found it inscribed on a key to their original rehearsal space — and they’ve been in tune with tearing it up on live stages both big and small all across the globe ever since. Plus, the band’s mighty music catalog, consisting of more than 20 studio albums and a score of live releases, has racked up multi-platinum album sales many times over.
