Concert Details

Jim Messina is an expert in the fine art of creating hit songs. His legacy spans six decades, three supergroups, a vibrant solo career, and scores of producing and engineering credits.

Messina was first linked to Buffalo Springfield, producing and engineering for the band before joining as a bass player. When Buffalo Springfield disbanded in 1968, Messina and Richie Furay formed Poco, one of the first and longest-lasting country-rock groups.

In 1970, Messina was asked to work with a then-unknown Kenny Loggins. Over the next seven years, Loggins and Messina released eight hit records, charted 10 singles on the Billboard Hot 100, and sold more than 16 million albums. After Loggins and Messina’s partnership dissolved, Messina embarked on a solo career.

Messina’s touring band comprises acclaimed musicians who have played with him at various points, and they perform hits from across Messina’s vaunted career.
