John Fogerty and Steve Winwood Duet on “In the Midnight Hour” in Charlotte
John Fogerty and Steve Winwood brought their co-headlining shed tour to Charlotte, North Carolina on Wednesday, September 17, 2026, and closed the night by joining forces on Wilson Pickett’s “In the Midnight Hour” at Truliant Amphitheater. The pairing marked the first time Fogerty had worked the song into one of his regular sets since 2017.
- Date and location: September 17, 2026, at Truliant Amphitheater in Charlotte, NC
- Song performed together: Wilson Pickett’s “In the Midnight Hour”
- Fogerty’s last documented performance of the song in a regular set: March 3, 2017, at the Encore Theater in Las Vegas, per Setlist.fm
- Next joint tour stop: September 18, 2026, at St. Augustine Amphitheatre in St. Augustine, FL
How the John Fogerty and Steve Winwood Duet Happened
Winwood opened the Charlotte show with his own set before Fogerty took the stage to close out the night. Fogerty called Winwood back out during his closing performance, and the two shared vocals and instrumentation on the Wilson Pickett classic in front of the Truliant Amphitheater crowd.
The two artists have been billed on a joint shed tour, with each performing a set that spans his own catalog on any given night. The Charlotte stop gave fans a rare crossover moment between the two sets.
Fogerty’s History With “In the Midnight Hour”
Setlist.fm data shows Fogerty had not slotted “In the Midnight Hour” into a regular concert setlist since a March 3, 2017 show at the Encore Theater in Las Vegas. In the years since, he has occasionally referenced or riffed on the song during jam sessions and tribute performances, but it had not resurfaced as part of his standard show.
Where the Tour Goes Next
Fogerty and Winwood are scheduled to reunite on stage at St. Augustine Amphitheatre in St. Augustine, FL, on the evening of September 18, 2026. Earlier in the run, the two also shared the stage during a stop at Tanglewood, a performance that drew a review from Americana Highways.
