American rock group ZZ Top will take the Big Sandy Superstore Arena stage 7:30 p.m. Thursday.

The southern rock and blues trio from Texas last performed at the Big Sandy eight years ago.

The band consists of Billy Gibbons, Frank Beard and Dusty Hill. Ironically, Beard is the only member of the group who does not don the recognizable long beard and sunglasses like the other members do.

ZZ Top will perform its hits ranging from the ‘60s through its most recent album released in 2012, “La Futura.”

Cara Hedrick, marketing and sales manager at the Big Sandy Superstore Arena, said she expects a big crowd.

“We’ve had a really good response to this show on our social media pages,” Hedrick said. “We think it’s going to be a good mix of people. I’ve talked to people in their 20’s all the way up to their 60’s. The band really reaches across the board.”

The band is set to release its greatest hits collection this summer titled, “The Baddest of ZZ Top.”

Hedrick said there are limited tickets left for purchase.

“I would encourage anyone who wants tickets to get those now,” Hedrick said. “We hope to have a sold out house.”

Tickets begin at $49.50 and are available for purchase through the Big Sandy Superstore Arena or online.
