04-19 Kevin Cronin, former lead singer, vocalist & song writer of REO Speedwagon has a new tour, new music, new book and great stories!

One of the greatest rock bands in our generation was REO Speedwagon. At the beginning of this year, we got the press release that REO was no longer. But that doesn’t mean that guitarist, writer and lead vocalist, Kevin Cronin is stopping. We had the opportunity to speak with Kevin not only about his upcoming tour (with many of the REO family supporting him) along with his dad serving in World War II, How and why REO broke up and how Stephen Stills is one of his all time heroes! Plus a hint at his new book!
