Tom Scholz
Toledo, Ohio
Born and raised in Toledo, Ohio, Tom Scholz spent a good portion of his childhood playing sports and tinkering on just about anything motorized.
An MIT-trained engineer, he built BOSTON's signature sound piece by piece in a basement studio — fusing relentless craftsmanship with melodic rock that has resonated for nearly five decades.
Lead Vocals · Guitar · Keyboards · Harmonica
Brad Delp
June 12, 1951 – March 9, 2007
To anyone that's ever had the pleasure of listening to Brad belt out a tune, it's clearly evident that he was born to sing.
His soaring tenor defined the BOSTON sound — the voice on "More Than a Feeling," "Peace of Mind," and a generation's worth of arena-rock anthems.
Lead Vocals
Tommy DeCarlo
Utica, New York · April 23, 1965 – March 9, 2026
Born and raised in Utica, New York, Tommy DeCarlo lived and breathed sports, playing baseball, football and basketball throughout his school years.
He stepped into the impossible — fronting BOSTON in 2007 — and gave fans ten unforgettable years of soaring vocals and humble grace on stages large and small.
Lead Guitar · Keyboards · Backing Vocals
Gary Pihl
Chicago / San Francisco Bay Area
Raised in the suburbs of Chicago for the first 12 years of his life, Gary Pihl relocated to the San Francisco Bay area and has led a musical life ever since.
A long-time member of BOSTON, Gary brings the steady right-hand guitar work and harmony vocals that anchor the live show night after night.

Curly Smith
Montana / Arkansas
Born in the Big Sky country of Montana, but raised in Arkansas, Curly Smith had rhythm spoon-fed into his being from living next to railroad tracks.
A multi-instrumentalist with deep groove and decades of stage experience, Curly brings versatility and feel to every performance.
Drums · Harmony Vocals
Jeff Neal
After an extensive search for a new drummer for BOSTON, Tom Scholz happened to see Jeff Neal performing with his band Punchbug at a ski resort in Maine.
Power, precision, and a relaxed pocket — Jeff's playing is the engine room of the modern BOSTON live show.
Bass
Tracy Ferrie
Elkhart, Indiana
Hailing from Elkhart, Indiana, the "band instrument capital of the world," it was almost inevitable that Tracy Ferrie's life would be intrinsically woven with music.
Tracy anchors the low end with depth and feel — the heartbeat that lets the wall of guitars take flight.

A Long Island, NY native, Beth Cohen grew up in a house filled with music. She played both piano and flute by the time she was 10.
