Loggins & Messina at Paramount Theatre
Ever-smiling star Kenny Loggins found a second-life niche in the ’80s by writing crossover hits for movie soundtracks (Caddyshack, Footloose, Top Gun) that helped define the sound of that era's pop music. But Loggins' legacy started in the ’70s with Loggins & Messina, a songwriter-producer duo that teamed him with former Buffalo Springfield member Jim Messina. The pair were perhaps the most commercially successful singer-songwriter group of the time, flooding the charts with songs like “Your Mama Don’t Dance.” They reunited for a tour in 2005, their first time onstage together in 25 years; now, with Loggins about to release a new album of children's music, they're on the road again.
