Rocker Rod Stewart brought his still-energetic stage presence and raspy vocals to Raleigh’s Coastal Credit Union Music Park at Walnut Creek on a steamy Tuesday night.

The Rock & Roll Hall of Famer rocked out to his classic hits, including “Maggie May,” “Da Ya Think I’m Sexy,” “The First Cut is the Deepest,” “Infatuation” and “Forever Young.”

Cheap Trick opened for Stewart for the second time since 2022.

Both will bring their tour to Charlotte’s PNC Music Pavilion on July 29.

Here are photos from the Raleigh set.
