In 2024, George Thorogood and the Destroyers will celebrate their 50th anniversary as a band. Over the years, they have sold over 15 million albums with six going Gold and two Platinum and played 8,000+ live shows.
∙ Thorogood’s backing band was originally known as the Delaware Destroyers, but the state name was dropped when the group relocated to Boston in the late ’70s.
∙ Their big break came in 1981, when they toured with The Rolling Stones, including a New Orleans date that set a record for the largest indoor concert ever held.
∙ The Destroyers’ 50-50 Tour, in support of the album I’m Wanted, took them to 50 states in 50 nights—and all but Hawaii and Alaska in a Checker cab.
∙ Their 1985 hit “I Drink Alone” was originally intended for country superstar George Jones, until Thorogood’s label persuaded the singer to keep it for the Destroyers.
∙ After more than 40 years of playing with the Destroyers, Thorogood released his first solo album, Party of One, in 2017—a tribute to the artists who shaped his sound.
∙ In 2020, Thorogood launched a streaming series, One Bourbon, One Scotch, and One Story, in which he and his band recount their history and musical influences.
