Kevin Cronin Talks Solo Career After REO Speedwagon Split: ‘I Never Quit the Band’
The final show under the REO Speedwagon moniker takes place Dec. 21 at the Venetian in Las Vegas.
“Never in my wildest dreams did I ever see this coming,” Cronin — who will make his solo debut on Jan. 25 in Thackerville, Okla. and will be part of next summer’s Brotherhood of Rock tour with Styx and former Eagles guitarist Don Felder — tells Billboard in his first interview about the situation. Hall took a leave of absence during November of 2023 to have back surgery, with his spot filled by longtime Elton John and former David Lee Roth bassist Matt Bissonette. Cronin — who had to cancel some summer shows this year due to unspecified health issues — further acknowledges that there’s acrimony between he and Hall, and he’s been unhappy with some of the social media discourse blaming him for the end of the REO Speedwagon name.
