Steve Miller Band & Peter Frampton at Pine Knob Music Theatre

Formed in 1966, the Steve Miller Band began in San Francisco, California as a psychedelic rock group. The band's debut album, Children of the Future, was released in 1968, but it was 1973's classic rock-influenced album, The Joker, that brought the band mainstream success. The album launched a single of the same name, which became a number-one hit and was certified platinum, selling over one million copies. The band continued to have a steady stream of hits throughout the 1970s, including “Fly Like an Eagle”, “Rock'n Me” and “Abracadabra”. To date, Steve Miller Band has released eighteen studio albums, six live albums, seven (official) compilation albums, and at least twenty nine singles. They have sold over sixty million albums worldwide.
