Known as “The American Band,” Grand Funk Railroad continues to bring high-energy performances across the U.S. The band features original members Don Brewer (vocals, drums, and writer of We’re an American Band) and Mel Schacher (bass), alongside rock veterans Max Carl, Mark Chatfield, and Tim Cashion. With a hard-driving sound and powerful melodies, Grand Funk paved the way for bands like Foreigner, Journey, and Van Halen. Their mega-hits “We’re an American Band”, “Closer to Home”, “The Loco-motion”, and “Some Kind of Wonderful” remain rock radio staples. Their music continues to make waves in film, TV, and advertising, proving their lasting impact 55 years after their 1969 debut in Flint, Michigan. The group’s 2024 The Loco-Motion Tour was a huge success and now, with the group’s American Band Tour 2025, seasoned Grand Funk lovers and contemporary rock fans discovering the group for the first time will be able to celebrate with GRAND FUNK RAILROAD!
