Legendary Rock Band “Cheap Trick” to Return to Huntington’s Paramount on September 15 for 2026 All Washed Up Tour

HUNTINGTON, NY – One of America’s most enduring rock bands, Cheap Trick, will return to The Paramount in Huntington on Tuesday, September 15, 2026, as part of the group’s All Washed Up Tour. The concert is scheduled to begin at 7:30 PM, with doors opening at 6:30 PM. The current venue and ticket listings identify Cheap Trick as the only announced act.
Known for their razor-sharp riffs, witty lyrics, and power-pop hooks, Cheap Trick have spent more than five decades creating music that remains both radio-friendly and relentlessly authentic. From the timeless “I Want You to Want Me” and “Surrender” to the hard-edged “Dream Police,” the band’s catalog continues to connect with multiple generations of rock fans.
The Huntington concert comes as Cheap Trick continues touring behind All Washed Up, the band’s 21st studio album, which was released in November 2025. The album includes songs such as “The Riff That Won’t Quit” and “Twelve Gates,” blending the group’s familiar melodic instincts with the energetic rock sound that has defined its long career.
Cheap Trick’s live performances typically combine major hits with deeper selections from the band’s extensive catalog. Guitarist Rick Nielsen remains known for his distinctive playing and playful stage presence, while Robin Zander continues to lead the group’s performances with the powerful vocals that have been central to Cheap Trick’s sound since the 1970s.
