''You cannot talk about rock in the 1970s without talking about Grand Funk Railroad!"
- David Fricke, Rolling Stone Magazine
Born in the industrial heart of Flint, Michigan, Grand Funk Railroad formed in 1969 and quickly cemented their place in rock history as one of America's most powerful live acts. Now, more than five decades later, this legendary band is still co min' to your town to help you party it down - bringing the same explosive energy and crowd-shaking sound to 2026 tour dates across the nation for their Still
Shinin' On Tour.
Affectionately known as The American Band, Grand Funk Railroad continues to pack venues across the country, connecting generations of fans with their unmistakable mix of hard-driving rock, soulful vocals, and anthemic hits. Founding members Don Brewer (vocals and drums, and writer/singer of the iconic
'We're an American Band") and Mel Schacher (bass, the thunder behind the groove) are joined by a lineup of all-star talent: the ever-versatile Tim Cashion (affectionately known as "Dr. lim") on lead vocals and keys, who - in the past - has hit the road with Robert Palmer and Bob Seger; and guitar slinger and veteran of Bob Seger's Silver Bullet Band Mark Chatfield.
Their influence can still be heard in the DNA of rock icons like Van Halen, Bon Jovi, Foreigner, and Journey. Grand Funk's music endures not only on the airwaves - thanks to mega-hits like We're an American Band, I'm Your Captain/Closer to Home, The Loco-Motion, and Some Kind of Wonderful-but also on big screens and 1V campaigns. From Disney's The Country Bears to General Motors commercials, and blockbuster films like Radio and Sahara, their songs remain a cultural touchstone.
With more than 25 million albums sold, 19 charting singles, 8 Top 40 hits, and two No. 1 smashes, Grand Funk has earned 7 gold and 10 platinum certifications - including 2022 platinum awards for both We're an American Band and Some Kind of Wonderful.
Following the success of last year's AMERICAN BAND TOUR 2025, the STILL SHININ' ON TOUR 2026 keeps the train rolling. Whether you're a lifelong fan or discovering Grand Funk for the first time, there's no better time to experience one of rock's most enduring bands.
