BIG HEAD TODD AND THE MONSTERS CELEBRATE THEIR 40TH ANNIVERSARY WITH TWO SPECIAL NIGHTS AT RED ROCKS AMPHITHEATRE

BOULDER, CO – Big Head Todd and the Monsters are gearing up to celebrate their 40th Anniversary with two special nights at their hometown haunt, Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado. This will be the 37th time that the band has performed at this spectacular venue.

The party kicks off on Saturday, June 7th, with Cracker opening the show, followed by Chicago pop icons Cheap Trick, then headliner Big Head Todd and the Monsters taking the stage. “We are honored to be sharing the stage with Cheap Trick. Todd continues, “I cannot wait to see this iconic band in such an awe-inspiring setting.”

The celebration continues on Sunday, June 8th, with Bill Murray (yup, that Bill Murray) and his Blood Brothers, Albert Castiglia, and Mike Zito, jump-starting the show, followed by Warren Haynes Band; and closing the show, Big Head Todd and the Monsters.

2024 was an action-packed year for BHTM. They released their 12th album, Her Way Out, via Big Records and toured relentlessly. Fans and critics agreed that the record was a knockout, containing a collection of gems surrounded by outstanding musicianship for which the band is known and loved.

Denver’s Westword declared, “Her Way Out is the kind of album that’s meant to be played while speeding down a mountain road, chasing that Wild West type of freedom that this Colorado band has always evoked.”. Blues Music Magazine declared, “If you want a blues-rock album with a captivating sound that will encourage frequent listening, this one’s for you.” And Glide Magazine stated, “This LP compels the question of whether there is a band on the planet more comfortable in its collective skin than Big Head Todd and the Monsters. There’s a well-earned and deserved confidence that radiates out in all directions for the whole of this thirty-nine-minute playing time.”

ABOUT BIG HEAD TODD AND THE MONSTERS
For four decades, the members of Big Head Todd and The Monsters—Todd Park Mohr [vocals, guitar, keys, sax, harmonica], Brian Nevin [drums], Rob Squires [bass, vocals], and Jeremy Lawton [keyboards, lap pedal-steel guitar, vocals]—have continued to both throw down in the studio and light up stages worldwide. Rallying around a core vision, the platinum-selling Colorado quartet kicks out the jams in the studio and on stage.

Todd, Brian, and Rob unlocked their musical partnership during high school when they started jamming in the early eighties. In 1986, they adopted the name Big Head Todd and The Monsters. BHTM released two successful independent records on their label, BIG Records, Another Mayberry (1989), and Midnight Radio (1990.) Sister Sweetly (1993) pushed them to the next level, yielding four top 10 rock radio hits. Strategem [1994] came next, followed by Beautiful World [1997], which included “Boom Boom” featuring John Lee Hooker.

The band procured a spot in The Guinness Book of World Records with their performance of “Blue Sky” live from NASA Mission Control to the Space Station. They’ve toured and recorded with B.B. King, Neil Young, The Allman Brothers, Hubert Sumlin, David “Honeyboy” Edwards, Dave Matthews Band, The Eagles, and Robert Plant. They attained hometown hero status by headlining Red Rocks Amphitheatre 36 times and earning induction into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame in 2023.

“We work very hard at being a great band,” Todd declares; we’re also a group that cares for each other. We’ve been together for 40 years. Our audience has made it all possible, and we’re grateful and determined to keep playing.”
