Supertramp co-founder Roger Hodgson continues his extensive Breakfast in America 40th anniversary world tour in 2020 with performances scheduled in the U.S., South America, the U.K. and Europe.
The singer-songwriter’s show includes such popular songs as “The Logical Song,” “Give a Little Bit,” “Dreamer,” “Take the Long Way Home,” “Breakfast in America,” “It’s Raining Again” and “Fool’s Overture.”
The keyboardist / multi-instrumentalist co-founded Supertramp in London in 1969 with Rick Davies as the other driving force. Their initial collaborations attracted the attention of A&M Records and their self-titled album was released in 1970. From their second album forward, the pair began writing separately. However, like Lennon and McCartney, they maintained a joint writers credit on songs they recorded with Supertramp.
In 1974, the band released the album, Crime of the Century, and Hodgson’s song, “Dreamer,” became their first U.K. hit. Three years later, they scored their first big U.S. hit, “Give a Little Bit.”
Breakfast in America was released on March 29, 1979. It reached #1 in the U.S. that May staying there for six weeks, and thanks to three huge pop singles, it was the year’s #5 top-seller. Cumulative sales are a reported 20 million copies worldwide.
Hodgson left Supertramp in 1983.
