Eight Gigs: Todd Rundgren
Wed., July 29, 8 p.m., Center for the Arts, $37-$47
Although most folks know Sir Todd Rundgren for “Hello, It's Me” and nothing more, there are legions of fans who have followed this ever-changing artist into whatever musical territory he chooses. Rundgren is now 67 years old and still releases new records; his fabulous 25th studio album, Global, came out in early April 2015. To say Rundgren is ambitious on the live front would be an understatement since he delivers with remarkable ease whether playing solo or with a full live band. If you've never experienced him live, be prepared for a varied set list that is sure to please both die-hard fans and newbies alike. 314 West Main Street in Grass Valley, www.facebook.com/toddrundgren.
