Rejoining the tour in 2026 is The Association (in the main photo), the California sunshine-pop band who enjoyed radio success during the 1960s, playing 1967’s Monterey Pop Festival and charting No. 1 hits “Cherish,” “Windy” “Never My Love” and more.

For the first time, The Troggs, who will bring their English beat sound and hits “Wild Thing,” “With a Girl Like You” and “Love Is All the Around.” “Wild Thing” ranked No. 257 on Rolling Stone’s list of 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

Also a tour first-timer, Scheff, Chicago lead singer from 1985-2016, will perform the group’s biggest early hits, which include “25 or 6 to 4,” “Saturday in the Park,” “If You Leave Me Now” and “Feeling Stronger Every Day.”

Puckett returns to the tour, and fans will remember numbers including “Young Girl,” “Over You,” “Woman, Woman,” “This Girl Is a Woman Now,” “Lady Willpower,” “Don’t Give in to Him” and more.

The Fortunes make their Happy Together Tour debut with “You’ve Got Your Troubles,” “Here It Comes Again,” “Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again,” “Storm in a Teacup” and “Freedom Come, Freedom Go.”

Dante served as lead singer of The Archies and The Turtles (2018-2025), with hits  “Sugar, Sugar,” “Bang-Shang-A-Lang” and “Jingle Jangle.” Dante will lead the audience and artists through the signature finale singalong “Happy Together.”

The Vogues, known for their soaring, harmony-driven pop sound, sent singles like “Five O’Clock World,” “You’re the One,” “My Special Angel” and “Turn Around, Look at Me” up the charts during the 1960s.

Rounding out the bill will be The Cowsills, the harmonious family band who scored success with songs including “Hair,” “Indian Lake” and “The Rain, The Park & Other Things.”
