Boston

He might need to call for backup after this.

Ultimate Classic Rock is giving one lucky winner a trip for two to Boston and Joan Jett's show in Boston on July 13.

The band issued a statement following the news that Sib Hashian, the drummer on their first two albums, died.

John Thomas "Sib" Hashian, the drummer who played on Boston's first two bestselling LPs, has died at the age of 67.

Boston will hit the road again in a couple months for a new tour.

The veteran '70s hitmakers will team up for a handful of shows during their summer tours.

Boston's new album, 'Life, Love & Hope,' features a blend of the band's classic sound with some new elements -- including some rapping and a rare lead vocal from leader Tom Scholz. But according to Scholz, he was neither trying to recapture the past nor fit in with the present.

Hot on the heels of the arrival of Boston's first studio album in more than a decade, Life, Love & Hope, the band has now released a brand-new Christmas single.  The veteran rockers have reworked the holiday classic "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen,"

Boston have undergone a lot of lineup changes over the course of the band's 37-year history, but their sound has always remained more or less the same, with very few concessions to current trends. As bandleader Tom Scholz revealed during a recent interview, that's at least partly because he doesn't even know what those current trends are.

In anticipation of ‘Life, Love & Hope,’ Boston have given a preview of things to come. The band has released the first single, ‘Heaven on Earth,’ which you can hear above.

The countdown to the next new batch of Boston recordings has begun in earnest, and although the Dec. 3 release date for the band's first new LP in 11 years might still feel pretty far away, at least we now have a record cover to look at while we wait.

Boston will reportedly release their first album since 2002 this fall. It's the sixth from the classic band, and the first to be released since singer Brad Delp committed suicide in 2007.
