Huey Lewis and the News
Huey Lewis and the News is an American pop rock band based in San Francisco, California. They had a run of hit singles during the 1980s and early 1990s, eventually achieving 19 top ten singles across the Billboard Hot 100, Adult Contemporary, and Mainstream Rock charts. Their most successful album, Sports, was released in 1983. The album, along with its videos being featured on MTV, catapulted the group to worldwide fame. That expanded when the song “The Power of Love” was featured in the hit film Back to the Future.
Huey Lewis and his band the News are perhaps best described as the working man’s Top 40 group. With their hard-driving rock and roll, catchy songs, and brisk a capella harmony, the band members have placed 16 songs in the Top Ten on the pop charts since 1982. Some of their most memorable hits include “I Want a New Drug,” “Heart of Rock and Roll,” “If This Is It,” and “The Power of Love.” Success came slowly for the California-based group, but since selling more than eight million copies of their 1983 album Sports, they have enjoyed superstar status in the United States and abroad.
In recent years, Huey Lewis and the News has performed for Contemporary Booking for Stifel Financial, Lumiere Casino and the Saint Louis Zoo.
