Croce is once again taking his celebrated Croce Plays Croce Tour across the country, bringing audiences an unforgettable evening of music that bridges generations and celebrates the enduring power of song. From his earliest performances as a teenager, to his critically acclaimed albums and world tours, A.J. Croce has forged a remarkable career entirely on his own terms.

Son of the legendary singer songwriter, Jim Croce, A.J purposefully waited thirty years to perform his father’s music, only introducing his acclaimed Croce Plays Croce Tour when he felt there was a meaningful way to honor his musical legacy with depth, intention, and musical integrity. Croce Plays Croce showcases that legacy in a way that few concerts can.

Through stories, humor, and remarkable musicianship, A.J. connects audiences to both his father’s iconic body of work and his own evolution as one of today’s most respected artists. The tour continues to sell out venues nationwide, earning standing ovations and glowing reviews for its heartfelt storytelling and inspired performances. With over three decades of touring and recording, A.J. Croce continues to connect audiences across generations — honoring his roots while defining a legacy that is distinctly his own.

Since Webb’s Grammy sweep in 1968 when his own “Up, Up and Away” and “By the Time I Get to Phoenix” vied for Song of the Year ( “Up” won) to the use of his “Do What You Gotta Do” in Kanye West’s “Famous,” the man often praised as “America’s Songwriter” remains a respected icon inpopular music–and continues to challenge his artistic boundaries with projects like a classical nocturne. His most famous songs are touchstones for a generation yet remain timeless -“MacArthur Park,” “Wichita Lineman,” “Worst That Could Happen.” During his live shows Webb brings fans of his music a unique connection to their favorite songs, revealing the stories behind his hits as far back as his first songwriting job at Motown through a career trajectory that took a teenaged preacher’s son from a farm town in Oklahoma to the top of his longed-for profession in just a few short years, with pitfalls and blessings in equal measure between.
