More than 25 years after the release of their debut album, Night Ranger is on the road again with their long list of hard rocking hits and ethereal love songs at Harrah’s Lake Tahoe Oct. 16.

Night Ranger is known as one of America’s most successful touring and recording bands. They left their mark on the charts with a string of best selling albums between 1982 and 1988, including Dawn Patrol, Midnight Madness, 7 Wishes, Big Life and Man in Motion. All went on to sell more than 10 million copies worldwide.

Their popularity was fueled by an impressive list of instantly recognizable hit singles and signature album tracks that are as much a part of the ’80s rock lore as Night Ranger itself.

“Sister Christian,” “(You Can Still) Rock In America,” “When You Close Your Eyes,” “Sentimental Street,” “Don’t Tell Me You Love Me,” and “Restless Kind of You” are just a few of the hit singles that catapulted Night Ranger to the top of the pop charts.

Night Ranger boasts some of country’s great rock musicians, including: Jack Blades, bass and lead vocals; Brad Gillis, guitar and vocals; Kelly Keagy, drums and lead vocals; Joel Hoekstra, guitar; and multi-instrumentalist Christian Cullen on keyboards.

The band reunited in 1997 to tour with Ted Nugent and the fans’ reaction convinced them that there is still an audience for their brand of soaring rock ‘n’ roll. In response to the success of their recent tours, RCA records released “The Best of Night Ranger” in 2000. The band continues to bring their guitar crunching, yet melodic brand of rock well into the 21st century.

Night Ranger is on stage Oct. 16 at 7:30pm in the legendary South Shore Room.

Tickets are $35, plus fees, and can be reserved by calling 800.786.8208 or purchase online.
