The Hit Men to open Fairfield arts center’s Artist Series

FAIRFIELD — Classic rock supergroup The Hit Men will make a return visit to the Fairfield Arts & Convention Center to open the 2021-22 Artist Series on Sept. 3.

Last here in 2018, The Hit Men invite audiences to relive rock’s greatest hits with band members who recorded with such legendary artists as Journey, Styx, Steely Dan, 3 Dog Night, Cream, and The Who. Now in a brand new configuration featuring fresh faces and bright new talent, The Hit Men carry on the tradition audiences have come to expect. They’ll celebrate their associations with rock’s mega-stars, share their first-hand experiences as eyewitnesses to rock history, and perform classic hits audiences know and love.

The arts center’s director Lindsay Bauer remarked, “We really wanted to open the season with a big feel-good show. The Hit Men sounded like just the ticket.”

To kick things off with a bang, special guests The Riverdogs Blues Band will open the performance at 7:30 pm.

“As the first performance back in the theater in a year and a half, we just felt the audience deserved a good party,” Bauer said. “The Riverdogs know how to bring that.”

Doors will open at 7 p.m. Tickets and more information are available at fairfieldacc.com.
