Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings to reunite for 1st Guess Who performance in 23 years
The musicians haven't performed together as the Guess Who in decades
Two of the Guess Who's founding members, Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings, are finally reuniting to perform, marking the first time the pair have performed as the Guess Who in 23 years.
Bachman and Cummings will take the stage on the Rock Legends Cruise XIII which will sail from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., through the Caribbean in February 2026.
While both musicians have each performed solo and Bachman has been a member of Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO) since the Guess Who's 1975 split, on the ship they will perform the band's classics as well as solo material and BTO songs.
The Guess Who's hits include American Woman, These Eyes and more, and popular songs by BTO include Takin' Care of Business and Let It Ride.
Bachman is currently on tour with BTO, while Cummings is gearing up for a solo tour that begins on June 21 in Edmonton.
In 2024, Cummings and Bachman settled their lawsuit against the band's other original members, Jim Kale and Garry Peterson. In the suit, they alleged Kale and Peterson had mislead fans into thinking Bachman and Cummings were still in the Guess Who, by forming a "cover band" and putting out albums albums under the Guess Who name.
"I want people to realize that Randy Bachman, Kurt Winter, Bill Wallace, all the people that wrote the songs … we're the ones that made the records. I don't want the history of the band to be tied up with these fakes," Cummings told CBC Manitoba in 2024.
