About Def Leppard:

With more than 110 million albums sold worldwide and two prestigious Diamond Awards in the U.S., Rock & Roll Hall of Fame® inductees Def Leppard - Joe Elliott (vocals), Phil Collen (guitar), Rick Savage (bass), Vivian Campbell (guitar) and Rick Allen (drums) — continue to be one of the most important forces in rock music. Over the course of their career, the band has produced a series of classic ground-breaking albums - including the 14x Platinum Hysteria and 11x Platinum Pyromania - that set the bar for generations of music fans and artists alike. The group’s spectacular live shows and arsenal of hits have become synonymous with their name, leading Def Leppard to be heralded as the world’s greatest live rock band. In May 2022, Def Leppard released their critically and commercially acclaimed twelfth studio album Diamond Star Halos. The album debuted at #1 on the Apple, Amazon Music and Billboard’s Hard Rock charts, and scored a Top 10 debut on Billboard’s Top 200 Albums chart, marking the band’s eighth Top 10 album of their career. Marking another huge milestone, the band was recently honored with their own star on the iconic Hollywood Walk of Fame. 

 

About Goo Goo Dolls:

Formed by John Rzeznik and Robby Takac in Buffalo, NY during 1986, Goo Goo Dolls have quietly broken records, contributed a string of staples to the American songbook, connected to millions of fans and indelibly impacted popular music for three-plus decades. Beyond selling 15 million records worldwide, the group has garnered 4x GRAMMY-nominations and nearly a dozen platinum and gold singles combined and seized a page in the history books by achieving 15 #1 and Top 10 hits. As a result, they hold the all-time radio record for “Most Top 10 Singles.” 

On the heels of going viral, the band’s Diamond-certified hit “Iris” has garnered over 6 billion streams worldwide, amassing over 1 billion streams in 2025 alone. Originally released in 1998, the 4x GRAMMY-nominated track continues to reach new audiences around the world and recently received a new version by SZA in addition to being covered by the likes of Taylor Swift, Machine Gun Kelly, Phoebe Bridgers, Maggie Rogers and sombr yet again proving the timelessness and staying power of Goo Goo Dolls’ illustrious catalog. Earlier this year, the track was nominated for “Best Throwback Song” at the American Music Awards. 

 

About The Struts: 

Since bursting onto the scene in 2015 with the release of Everybody Wants, The Struts have become synonymous with modern glam-rock swagger and arena-sized energy. Known for hits like "Could Have Been Me," "Kiss This," and "Body Talks," the band quickly earned global acclaim and a dedicated fanbase. Their debut album charted internationally and led to opening slots for rock legends such as The Rolling Stones, Foo Fighters, Guns N' Roses, and Mötley Crüe — with Dave Grohl famously declaring them "the best opening band we've ever had." With multiple acclaimed studio albums under their belt — including Young & Dangerous (2018), Strange Days (2020), and Pretty Vicious (2023) — The Struts have built a reputation for genre-blending innovation, theatrical flair, and a sound that feels both nostalgic and fresh. Their latest singles, including "How Can I Love You (Without Breaking Your Heart)" and "Can't Stop Talking," have further solidified their place in the modern rock landscape. In addition to the band's collective success, frontman Luke Spiller has ventured into solo territory with his debut album, Love Will Probably Kill Me Before Cigarettes and Wine, released in April 2025. They've played top festivals around the world, appeared on late-night television, and continue to pack venues from Los Angeles to London.
