38 Special Brings 50 Years of Southern Rock Hits to Tulsa Feb. 26
TULSA, Okla. (Oct. 28, 2025) — With more than 20 million albums sold and a legacy that’s synonymous with explosive Southern Rock anthems, 38 Special makes its return to Hard Rock Live inside Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tulsa on Thursday, Feb. 26 at 8 p.m.
For five decades, 38 Special has been known for powerful guitar riffs and unforgettable live shows. With a catalog of hits including “Hold On Loosely,” “Caught Up in You,” “If I’d Been the One,” “Back Where You Belong” and “Second Chance,” the band remains one of America’s most enduring rock acts.
Formed in Jacksonville, Florida, in 1974, 38 Special quickly gained recognition for its distinctive sound, a blend of hard-driving rock energy and melodic hooks that dominated FM radio throughout the late 1970s and 1980s. Co-founder Don Barnes continues to lead the charge, keeping the band’s legacy alive with longtime members Jerry Riggs (lead guitar), Gary Moffatt (drums), Bobby Capps (keyboards) and Barry Dunaway (bass).
