Huey Lewis & The News celebrate 25 years with live set, tour
Huey Lewis & The News will mark their 25th anniversary with a recently recorded live set and another round of tour dates.
Titled "Live at 25," the new collection is due in stores May 17, and will be available as an audio CD and video DVD. The group recorded the set during a two-night stand in Chico, CA, last December.
In addition to the recently recorded live material, "Live at 25" will also include some bonus material from the group's archives. A final track listing has not yet been released.
As "Live at 25" heads to stores, Lewis and his band plan to log some miles during a U.S. outing that so far stretches from early April into late September. The itinerary is included below.
Best known for their '80s-era batch of hits, Huey Lewis & The News have continued to tour steadily over the years. The group's most-recent studio album is 2001's "Plan B," which is its first collection of new material since 1991's "Hard at Play."
"Sports," released in 1983, remains the group's most commercially successful album to date. It features the Top 10 hits "I Want a New Drug," "The Heart of Rock & Roll," "If This Is It" and "Heart and Soul," and has been certified seven-times platinum, according to the Recording Industry Association of America.
