TOUCHED

About Me

Touched is great name for a band, we should know we having been using it since 1986. We are based out of the Twin Cities and play Classic and Current Hard Rock such as Zepplelin, Foghat, Edgar Winter, Zombie, Van Halen, Judas Priest, Nickelback, Salivia, Shinedown, Audioslave, etc. Sure we are a bunch of guys in our thirties but that means we have lots of experience and practice kicking ass. We have opened for lots of national acts such as Jackyl, REO Speedwagon, LA Guns, Tesla, Foghat, David Lee Roth, and so on.... The band will rock your brains out while you party your brains out. Every show is another party. If you are in the Minnesota area and want to rock out, come check us out, you will not be disappointed. Touched has held a solid presence in the Mid-West music scene since 1986 and is still in demand by top nightclubs, events planners, concert promoters, agents, and most of all - the great live rock fans of Minnesota!
