Phil Vassar’s life has always been steeped in music. Raised in a home where his father sang and his two sisters spun everything from Motown to West Coast harmonies, his upbringing was a constant melody. The gospel and bluegrass influence of Lynchburg’s unique geography further shaped his sound, while artists like Bruce Hornsby, the Statler Brothers, Billy Joel, Elton John, and Lionel Richie sculpted his melodic sensibilities. A true fan of rock legends like Queen, Boston, and David Bowie, Vassar’s eclectic roots would lay the foundation for his remarkable career.
Now, celebrating the 25th anniversary of his breakout hit “Just Another Day in Paradise,” the piano-pounding powerhouse is embarking on his “25 Years of Paradise” Tour. His show, which includes both timeless hits and covers of musical icons like Billy Joel and Elton John, brings a new life to his catalog, with nightly changes in the setlist. Hear standout songs like “Carlene,” “Six-Pack Summer,” “In Real Love” and “My Next Thirty Years” to name a few.
