AL STEWART with THE EMPTY POCKETS

The unmistakable voice behind “Year of the Cat” and “Time Passages,” Al Stewart brings more than five decades of timeless songwriting to the Tower, joined by acclaimed Chicago roots-rock band The Empty Pockets.

Blending folk, rock, vivid storytelling and a lifelong fascination with history, Stewart has built a remarkable catalog of songs that are as intelligent as they are unforgettable. From his breakthrough years in the British folk scene to international success, his signature mix of history, romance and sharp observation has made him one of folk-rock’s most distinctive songwriters.

The Empty Pockets bring rich harmonies, soulful musicianship and an infectious rock energy to the evening, making this a night that reaches beyond nostalgia and celebrates great songs, great stories and musicianship at its best.

Come for the songs you know by heart. Leave remembering why Al Stewart remains one of the great storytellers of his generation.
