Who Is in Ringo Starr's All Starr Band in 2026?
Who is playing in Ringo's All Starr Band in 2026?
Seven musicians walk on stage each night: Ringo plus six All Starrs. The idea behind the band has never changed. Each member comes from a group with hits of their own, and they play those hits live alongside Ringo's Beatles and solo songs. Here is who you will see this fall, what they play, and which songs they bring to the show.
| Member | Plays | Known for | What you hear live |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ringo Starr | Vocals, drums | The Beatles; solo career | Yellow Submarine, With a Little Help From My Friends, It Don't Come Easy, Photograph |
| Steve Lukather | Guitar, vocals | Toto | Rosanna, Africa, Hold the Line |
| Colin Hay | Guitar, vocals | Men at Work | Down Under, Overkill, Who Can It Be Now? |
| Hamish Stuart | Bass, vocals | Average White Band; formerly in Paul McCartney's band | Pick Up the Pieces, Cut the Cake, Work to Do |
| Warren Ham | Sax, flute, harmonica, keys, vocals | Has played with Kansas, Toto and Bloodrock | Horn, harmonica and harmony parts across the whole set |
| Gregg Bissonette | Drums | David Lee Roth's band | Holds the kit while Ringo sings out front; drum solo in Cut the Cake |
| Buck Johnson | Keyboards, vocals | Has worked with Aerosmith and the Hollywood Vampires | Keyboards and harmonies all night |
That adds up to three bands' worth of radio hits on one bill: Toto, Men at Work and Average White Band, plus a Beatle. You can see the full running order on our setlist page.

Is Edgar Winter in Ringo's All Starr Band in 2026?
No. Edgar Winter played sax and keyboards with the All Starr Band in the 2022-era lineup, but he is not part of the 2024 to 2026 lineup. We have not found a confirmed public reason for the change, so we won't guess. If you saw an older poster or video with his name on it, it predates the current band.
Has the lineup changed since 2024?
No. The same six All Starrs have played every show since 2024, including the 2025 Las Vegas run and the spring 2026 Western leg. setlist.fm files the 2026 dates under the "16th All Starr Band" tour, and the fall shows use that same lineup. Ringo's official tour announcement for fall 2026 lists exactly these names. Lineups can always change, so check our tour dates page if you are reading this after October 2026.
Why does the band have two drummers?
Because Ringo spends a big part of the night singing at the front of the stage. Gregg Bissonette keeps the groove going while he does, and when Ringo sits back down at his kit, the two play side by side. Two drummers have been part of the format since the very first band in 1989. We explain the whole story on our second drummer page.
Who has been in the All Starr Band before?
A lot of people. The first band in 1989 included Joe Walsh, Dr. John, Billy Preston, Levon Helm, Rick Danko, Nils Lofgren, Clarence Clemons and Jim Keltner. Since then there have been around 16 different lineups. Read the full background in our All Starr Band history.
Where can I see the current lineup next?
The fall 2026 run is short: ten shows in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, from Easton, PA on September 24 to Albany, NY on October 7, one night per city. Highlights include Forest Hills Stadium, Ringo's first show there since the Beatles played it in 1964, and Portland, Maine, his first-ever show in that city. No dates after October 7 have been announced, and nothing is confirmed for 2027 yet (see our 2027 tour page).
