Stryper frontman and accomplished solo artist Michael Sweet is touring with the legendary rock band Boston on a headlining tour of North America. Sweet is sharing lead vocals and playing guitar, performing the band’s classic hits like “More than a Feeling,” “Peace of Mind,” “Amanda” and “Don’t Look Back.”
The tour kicked off in Thunder Bay, Ontario on June 6th, and will take the band to 54 cities throughout the USA and Canada before wrapping up in San Juan, Puerto Rico on August 31st. Joining Boston on the tour is equally legendary rock band Styx.
Stryper put the finishing touches on a brand new studio record “Murder By Pride” scheduled for release in 2009. Ironically, the album includes a cover of Boston’s “Peace of Mind” and features Boston guitarist Tom Scholz on the recording. The band had chosen to record the cover of Boston’s song for the album before Sweet was even asked to join the band. The song is now available on iTunes and other digital stores.
