Mr. Big is often referred to as a supergroup, and with good reason. When they formed in 1988, the musicians all came from well-known bands, and expectations were high. However, their debut album didn't make much of an impression, and it wasn't until 1991's Lean into It that they exploded onto the scene! The ballads To Be With You and Just Take My Heart paved the way for rock classics such as Green-Tinted Sixties Mind. As the world descends into grunge madness, Mr. Big proves that creative hard rock is not dead.

In 1993 and 1996, Bump Ahead and Hey Man completed the discography of Mr. Big, whose hard rock is still going strong. But the following year, Paul Gilbert left the band to devote himself once again to Racer X. Without this founding pillar and his spicy solos, Mr. Big floundered for a few years, trying to find a replacement before going their separate ways in 2002.

But seven years later, with a bang, Mr. Big is back on tour with his original line-up! The news was eagerly awaited by fans, as was the album that followed. What If..., which sounds "as if the band had never stopped", is a concentrate of rhythmic rock, impeccable solos and choruses calibrated to be taken in chorus... A sound which has not suffered from the band's 15-year separation, which brings together their fans from Manila to Paris and heralds the start of a new era.

It's called The Big Finish Tour. Six years after the release of their last album, Mr. Big are hitting the road again for their final tour. "Often people say it's a farewell tour, then they come back, but we want you to know that this is a real farewell tour. We want to say thank you and goodbye, because we really love people," explains Billy Sheehan. So, whether you're a die-hard fan or a young neophyte, you won't want to miss them this time.
