About the event
Badfinger is a Welsh rock band formed in 1961, and one of the world's longest running bands. Performing under various lineups since 1968 Joey Molland has kept the legacy of Badfinger alive. Badfinger performs in theatres, and at fairs & festivals throughout the U.S and still commands immense crowds and standing room venues. They are recognized for their influence on the 1970s power pop genre, having sold an estimated 14 million records. Badfinger had four consecutive worldwide hits from 1970 to 1972: "Come and Get It" (written and produced by Paul McCartney, 1970), "No Matter What" (produced by Mal Evans, 1970), "Day After Day" (produced by George Harrison, 1971), and "Baby Blue" (produced by Todd Rundgren, 1972). Their song "Without You" (1970) has been recorded many times, and became a US and UK number-one hit for Harry Nilsson and, twenty-four years later, a UK number-one for Mariah Carey.
