KELOWNA –– All Right Now, Bad Company, Rock n’ Roll Fantasy; they all share something in common: the legendary voice of Paul Rodgers.

Rodgers is undeniably one of music’s most distinctive vocalists. He has written and recorded some of rock’s greatest hits, releasing 27 CDs and selling 125 million of them.

Rodgers first shot up the international radio charts and unto the music scene with his rock anthem All Right Now with Free. The song hit #1 in more than 20 territories and was recognized for garnering one million-plus radio plays in the U.S. alone.

Prior to his solo career, Rodgers formed supergroup Bad Company, writing and singing smash hits such as Grammy nominated Fell Like Making Love, as well as Can’t Get Enough and many others.
