LineUp

British reggae star Maxi Priest became an internationally popular artist known for his lovers rock style, fusing reggae backbeats with R&B. He scored global hits like Wild World and the US chart-topper Close to You from his hit 1990 album Bonafide.
Jason Scheff is best known as the longtime lead vocalist, bassist, and principal songwriter for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame group Chicago. Joining in 1985 to replace Peter Cetera, he helped drive the band's major success throughout the 1980s and 1990s.
San Antonio, TX-born adult contemporary singer-songwriter Christopher Cross broke out in 1980 with Ride Like the Wind and #1 Sailing, winning five Grammys in 1981. He later earned an Academy Award for Arthur’s Theme (Best That You Can Do).
Swansea-based Badfinger, mentored by the Beatles, brought power pop to the '70s with hits like "Come and Get It." Known for Pete Ham's and Joey Molland's rock guitar edge, they achieved success with albums like "No Dice" and "Straight Up." Despite collaborating with George Harrison and Ringo Starr, they faced financial turmoil, leading to tragedies within the band. Notable covers of their song "Without You" by Harry Nilsson and Mariah Carey cemented their legacy.
