GRAMMY AWARD-WINNING SINGER/SONGWRITER BOZ SCAGGS - Cincinnati Event

Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter Boz Scaggs is gearing up for his 2015 tour in support of his new album "A Fool To Care" out March 31^st. The tour will include a stop in Huber Heights, OH at the Rose Music Center on Tuesday, July 21^st and will feature support by urban soul group, Tower of Power.

Raised in Texas with an abiding respect for a wide spectrum of American roots music, William Royce "Boz" Scaggs began a long and storied career in 1965 with the release of his first solo recording Boz. After cutting his teeth playing with Steve Miller and honing his rock and R&B chops with the likes of the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section and Duane Allman, Scaggs achieved multi-platinum success with Silk Degrees in 1976. He has continued on a lauded and multi-genre musical journey to the present day. With a trademark voice, a rich catalogue and many accolades, Scaggs continues to establish himself as one of music's most creative and original artists.

A Fool To Care is the follow-up to Boz Scaggs' critically acclaimed 2013 album Memphis, which Rolling Stone described as 'sublime' and hit the #1 spot on the Billboard Blues Chart and the Top 20 on the Billboard 200. The album is a new collection of songs boasting Scaggs' pioneering blend of rock, soul, jazz and blues and features guest appearances by Bonnie Raitt and Lucinda Williams. The inspirational heart of the album lies in the sounds of Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma that played such a vital role in shaping Scaggs' musical sensibility, but they venture forth boldly from there. Scaggs brings a sly drawl to a funky workout like Li'l Millet and the Creoles' "Rich Woman" and an elegant delicacy to the Impressions' "I'm So Proud." He easily negotiates the Latin flavoring of "Last Tango on 16th Street" and "I Want to See You," both written by San Francisco bluesman (and longtime Scaggs compatriot) Jack Walroth.
