Having The Psychedelic Rock And Roll Returning To The Stage

The Moody Blues tickets are available once again, and this completely unique English rock and roll band has been taking the genre in new directions and influencing bands that have followed for more than 40 years.  The Moody Blues were a distinct departure from the “normal” rock and roll styles of their time when they initially hit the scene, and their style continues to move into new directions to this day.  

Band Beginnings

The band originally came together in Birmingham, England in the early 1960′s, and each of the original members had been playing in local bands without much more than regional success.  Ultimately, each of the five original members grew together to form The Moody Blues and performed for the first time under their current moniker in their home town in 1964.  Their name was derived from what was supposed to be a sponsorship from the local M&B brewery, even though that arrangement never came to fruition.

The Moody Blues continued to play local and regional clubs, and their intensely psychedelic style soon gathered a loyal following.  It wasn’t long before The Moody Blues tickets became a very popular item, and this gained the notice of record companies in England.  

Commercial Success

The band signed with Decca Records later that year, and their first two released singles hit the charts.  However, it was their second single release, “Go Now,” which climbed all the way to the top of the UK charts and to number 10 in the United States.  From there, the band’s name was known around the world, and they capitalized on this newfound fame by continuing to improvise and create a new style of rock and roll.  

It was their 1967 release, Days of Future Passed, which really set their name in stone as true musical stars.  This release contained two legendary singles, including “Nights in White Satin” and “Tuesday Afternoon,” and these songs continue to be their most popular and recognizable releases to this day.  

The band continued to tour aggressively, and in 1973, citing burnout, they decided to go their separate ways for a time.  However, they finally got back together in 1977, and since then they have continued to expand their horizons, performing as part of musicals and in collaboration with several symphonies around the world.

If you’d like a night of mood-enhancing music, you need to secure The Moody Blues tickets and allow your spirit to be taken in directions you’ve never before experienced at a concert.
