Knowing that people still want to hear these songs live means everything to us, and when we go out on stage, our goal is to truly honour the music.” Bachman adds, “I’m really excited about reuniting with Burton and touring again as The Guess Who.
We created an amazing body of work together, along with memories that have lasted for decades, and those songs are still as strong as ever.
