Hagar, also known as The Red Rocker, is a Grammy award-winning vocalist, guitarist, songwriter, New York Times bestselling author and musician, who in 2007 was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Van Halen. From his beginnings with the rock band Montrose to his multiplatinum solo career and his role as the frontman of Van Halen, he’s set the tone for some of the greatest rock anthems such as "I Can't Drive 55," "Your Love Is Driving Me Crazy," "Finish What Ya Started," and "Right Now.” With his Cabo Wabo Tequila, Sammy’s Beach Bar Rum and succession of successful bar and restaurant brands, he’s evolved into an auspicious entrepreneur. Hagar also takes a philanthropic role through the “Hagar Family Foundation” with the goal of putting food on the table for those in need. For information about Sammy Hagar, visit www.redrocker.com. The Circle features Michael Anthony, a longtime rhythm bassist who has played with Hagar for the past 30 years in bands including Van Halen and Chickenfoot; Vic Johnson, guitarist from Hagar’s band The Wabos; and Jason Bonham, the acclaimed drummer and son of iconic Led Zeppelin drummer, John Bonham.
