The "Born to Boogie Band" was formed in 1988 as an in-studio band for Chicago Bears' Dan Hampton's weekly TV show. The group soon transformed into Chicago's Best Known Country Rock Show Band.
During the 1990's Big John & The Born to Boogie Band performed over 500 shows. Many of these concerts attained the status of Urban Legends due to great music, loud crowds, and an enormous amount of beer consumed. The Born to Boogie Band's official motto remains the same… "The more you drink… the better we sound!"
Recently (May 19th, 2000) The Born to Boogie Band shared the stage with George Jones and Collin Raye at the historic Chicago Theater.
