UTOPIA IS HERE



Todd Rundgren is getting the band back together!

Specifically his ’70s progressive rock group Utopia, for a spring tour. 

The band started as a larger ensemble and ended up as a four piece from 1977 through 1985, and the four piece incarnation achieved the greatest exposure, including their sole top 40 hit, “Set Me Free.”

Fans have been asking for a reunion since the band’s last tour in 1985, but save for a few shows in Japan in 1992, the fans have had to wait.

The wait is over!


The lineup this time features bassist Kasim Sulton, drummer Willie Wilcox and keyboardist Ralph Shuckett.


Friday Music is reissuing the band's material in a box set complete with bonus tracks-available in the Friday Music store.
