BINGHAMTON, N.Y. – The Anderson Center for the Performing Arts at Binghamton University returns to presenting summer concerts in 2022 with its biggest season ever, including four classic rock performances and a free orchestral showcase.

• The season kicks off Tuesday, June 21, with George Thorogood and the Destroyers – Good to be Bad Tour. The Delaware Slide-guitarist, whose name is practically synonymous with “blues rock,” will perform hits from his 45-year career, including “Bad to the Bone,” “One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer” and “Move it on Over.”

• The season continues Wednesday, June 29, with a free program of patriotic songs by the United States Army Field Band and Soldiers’ Chorus, the musical ambassadors of the U.S. Army (reservations required).

• Longstanding Australian hit-maker Air Supply brings its “Lost in Love Experience Tour” to campus Friday, July 22, performing “All Out of Love,” “Making Love out of Nothing at All” and more.

• The following week, audiences will take a trip back to the ‘90s Friday, July 29, with Spin Doctors, whose 1991 song “Two Princes” is one of the decade’s most enduring hits.

• The summer season wraps up Friday, Aug. 12, with a performance by Canadian rockers The Guess Who. The band, featuring drummer and founding member Garry Peterson, explores a half-century’s worth of hits, including “American Woman,” “These Eyes” and “Clap for the Wolfman.”
