\xa0The Buddy Rich Band has all of the excitement, drive, and showmanship that Buddy brought throughout his career.

This is not your grandparents music! No nostalgia. This is a contemporary take on a classic style. Buddy never looked back. He was a musical visionary who was always ahead of the curve. The band has toured from New York to London, Hollywood to Tokyo.\xa0
