Ringo Starr & His All Starr Band will perform at the Dodge Theater in Phoenix on Thursday, July 31, 2008. Starr's 10th All Starr-studded tour includes returning All Starrs (in alphabetical order): Colin Hay, Billy Squier, Hamish Stuart, and Edgar Winter, and first timers Gary Wright and Gregg Bissonette. The All Starr tour will bring its newest chart-topping lineup to 31 cities in the U.S. and Canada, including New York, Boston, Chicago and Los Angeles.
No other single stage produces the hits like Ringo's All Starrs, each singularly accomplished in their own right. All of the All Starr artists complement Starr's musical style and share his message of peace and love. As Ringo said in a recent interview, "My live shows are a peace-and-love fest. That's my main promotion, really." Starr's latest album, Liverpool 8, was released on CD, digitally and on USB wristband on January 15 by Capitol/EMI. His most personal release in years, Liverpool 8's songs are a reflective journey through Ringo's storied life and career and feature some of his greatest songwriting to date. Co-produced and co-written with Dave Stewart, Liverpool 8's resounding message of peace and love will continue to resonate with All Starr audiences across the country when Ringo hits the road this summer for his first tour since 2006.
Since 1989, Ringo Starr's All Starr tours have rocked sold out venues with great musicians who share Starr's love of performing. All of the All Starrs lend their most popular songs to Ringo's already impressive hit list which includes such classics as "With a Little Help From My Friends," "Yellow Submarine," "Photograph" and "It Don't Come Easy."
Colin Hay is best known as the frontman for Men At Work. Colin was also a member of the 8th edition of Ringo Starr's All Starr Band.
Billy Squier had a string of arena rock hits in the 1980s, including "The Stroke" "In The Dark", "Rock Me Tonite", "Lonely Is the Night", "My Kinda Lover", "Everybody Wants You", "All Night Long" and "Emotions in Motion."
Hamish Stuart was a member of the Average White Band from 1972 to 1982. He has also worked with Aretha Franklin, David Sanborn, and Paul McCartney.

Gary Wright is famous for his song, "Dream Weaver" and the piano player on one of the biggest selling and most famous ballads of all time, Harry Nillson's version of "Without You."
