Little River Band Sails into 2011 Commodity Classic Entertainment Schedule

The chart-topping Little River Band will bring its popular harmonies and classic rock sounds to the Evening of Entertainment stage in Tampa, Fla., at the 2011 Commodity Classic convention and trade show March 3-5. The Evening of Entertainment is generously sponsored by Monsanto. Commodity Classic is the premier convention and trade show of the National Corn Growers Association, the American Soybean Association, the National Sorghum Producers and the National Association of Wheat Growers.

Described as “the best harmony band in the world,” the Little River Band is in its 35th year of producing and performing hit making music. The group has sold over 25 million records and has 13 American top 40 hits to its credit.  

Formed in 1975, this Australian band was the first of the “Down Under” rock groups to crack the U.S. market. During its initial tour of the states, the band saw its 1976 single It’s a Long Way There make the U.S. Top 30 hit list. Before the 1970s were over, the Little River Band would release its Top 10 hits Lady, Reminiscing, Cool Change and Lonesome Loser. With over 4 million plays, Reminiscing remains the most frequently aired song in American radio history. Considered one of Australia’s most significant bands, the Little River Band was inducted into the Australian Recording Industry’s Hall of Fame in 2004.

Come join us at the Tampa Convention Center for this exclusive Commodity Classic event as the Little River Band performs its unforgettable melodies.
