Singer Roger Daltrey says Pete and I are very aware of the problems people are having in Michigan and feel we should give something back for all the support we have had over the last 40 years.
The Who have teamed up with 94.7 WCSX in selecting Gleaners Food Bank and Focus: HOPE as beneficiaries.
94.7 WCSX Operations Manager Doug Podell For over 20 years, WCSX has been committed to the Motor City. We were proud to be called upon by The Who to help in their effort to raise awareness and funds for these two worthwhile organizations.

The Who are an English rock band
formed in 1964. The primary lineup consisted of
guitarist Pete Townshend, vocalist Roger Daltrey,
bassist John Entwistle and drummer Keith Moon. The band
reached international success, became known for their
energetic live performances, are regarded as one of the
most influential rock bands of the 1960s and '70s, and
recognized as one of the greatest rock and roll bands of
all time. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame in 1990, their first year of eligibility.
The Who rose to fame in the United Kingdom with a
pioneering instrument destruction stage show, as well as
a series of top ten hit singles (including the
celebrated "My Generation") and top five albums,
beginning in 1965 with "I Can't Explain". They first hit
the top ten in the USA in 1967 with "I Can See for
Miles". The 1969 release of Tommy was the first in a
series of top five albums for the group in the USA,
followed by Live at Leeds (1970), Who's Next (1971),
Quadrophenia (1973), and Who Are You (1978) among
others.
Keith Moon died in 1978, after which the band released
two more studio albums, the top five Face Dances (1981)
and the top ten It's Hard (1982), with drummer Kenney
Jones, before officially disbanding in 1983. They
reformed on several occasions to perform at special
events such as Live Aid and for reunion tours such as
their 25th anniversary tour (1989) and the Quadrophenia
revival tours of 1996 and 1997. In 2000, the three
surviving original members began to discuss the
possibility of recording an album of new material. These
plans were delayed following the death of John Entwistle
in 2002. Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey continue to
perform as The Who. In 2006 they released the studio
album Endless Wire, which reached the top ten in the UK
and US.
