Dragon announce 40th anniversary tour

16th August 2012

2011 NZ Music Hall of Fame inductees Dragon will celebrate their 40th anniversary with a 14-date nationwide tour this October and November.

Formed in 1973 by Todd and Marc Hunter, Dragon went on to sell 2 million + records over 30 years, thanks to infectious hit songs such as April Sun in Cuba, Are You Old Enough?, Rain among others.

Following the tragic death of Marc Hunter in 1998, the band is now fronted by Kiwi singer Mark Williams, joining founding member Todd Hunter on bass, Canadian Bruce Reid on guitar and Pete Drummond behind the kit.

Dragon will be joined by fellow Hall of Famers Hello Sailor and Hammond Gamble for the tour.
