Styx draws from over four decades of barn-burning chart hits, joyous sing-a-longs, and hard-driving deep cuts. The band draws on an unlimited cache of ways to immerse one’s mind and body in their signature sound. These progressive rockers were responsible for many hit singles and classic rock radio standards including “Show Me the Way,” “The Best of Times,” “Mr. Roboto,” “Come Sail Away,” “Lady,” and “Babe.”
