Todd Rundgren, Rock’s Renaissance Man, returns to The Ridgefield Playhouse with hits “I Saw The Light”, “Hello, It’s Me”, “Bang The Drum All Day”, “It Wouldn’t Have Made Any Difference”, and so many more, on Tuesday, May 12, at 8 p.m. in his Global Tour 2015.
His career has produced a diverse range of recordings, both as a solo artist and as a member of the band Utopia. Songwriter, video pioneer, producer, recording artist, computer software developer and conceptualist, Rundgren has made an undeniable impact on popular music.
In the early ‘70s he was dubbed “Rock’s New Wünderkind” after albums A Wizard, A True Star and Something/Anything catapulted him into the limelight. Bissell House (378 Main St., Ridgefield) will pour a free glass of house wine or draught beer with dinner the night of this show when tickets/stubs are presented. An AllShows.com VIP Party Pass ($25), which includes a pre-show cocktail party 6:30 – 7:15 p.m. with open bar, hors-d’oeuvre and priority parking, is available for this show, which is part of the Xfinity Rock Series with media sponsor i95.9fm Fox Classic Rock.
Rundgren sells out every time he returns to the Playhouse. He tours regularly with Ringo Star and, as a producer, has worked on albums with Patti Smith, Cheap Trick, Psychedelic Furs, Meatloaf, XTC, Grand Funk Railroad as well as Hall And Oates.
