Storied British Invasion outfit the Hollies<\/a> will embark on their first full tour of the United States in 18 years this summer.<\/p>\n

The Road Is Long tour will launch July 8th at the Mountain Winery in Saratoga, California, and over the next month, the Hollies will criss-cross the U.S. stopping in cities like Los Angeles, San Antonio, Austin, Chicago and Washington, D.C. The tour wraps July 26th at the Wilbur in Boston.<\/p>\n

Tickets will go on sale on March 6th at 10 a.m. local time, save for the opening Saratoga show, which will go on sale at a later date. An artist pre-sale and VIP packages will also be available starting March 3rd. Complete information is available on the Hollies\u2019 website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very excited to bring our The Road Is Long tour to the USA and play for all the fans who have waited so long to see us back in America,\u201d Hollies drummer Bobby Elliott said in a statement. \u201cThe show will include all of our greatest hits and we cannot wait to get back on the road Stateside.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Hollies formed in 1962, first as a duo of Graham Nash and Allan Clarke, before expanding into a full group. Throughout the Sixties, the group notched many major U.K. hits, like \u201cJust One Look,\u201d \u201cI\u2019m Alive\u201d and \u201cI Can\u2019t Let Go.\u201d Although their chart success wasn\u2019t as robust in the United States, the Hollies still found plenty of acclaim here, even scoring one of their biggest hits, 1972\u2019s \u201cLong Cool Woman in a Black Dress,\u201d after Nash had left the band. The Hollies were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010.<\/p>\n

Elliott and guitarist\/singer Tony Hicks are the two longest-serving members of the Hollies\u2019 current lineup, which also features Ray Stiles, Ian Parker, Peter Howarth and Steve Lauri.<\/p>\n
