Acclaimed country rock band Blackberry Smoke is returning to the road this year in a big way with the recent announcements of TWO full tours. First up is their “Spirit of the South Tour: A Celebration of Southern Rock N’ Roll,” which will commemorate various influential Southern rock acts. This tour will feature The Allman Betts Band, The Wild Feathers and a mobile exhibit from The Allman Brothers Band Museum at the Big House. The tour begins June 25th and ends August 28th with venues primarily in the South and Northeast.
After that is the “You Hear Georgia Tour” that will run from August 31st to next April. It will kick off in Columbus, OH at The Athenaeum Theater and continue in the US. Starting in October Blueberry Smoke will travel over seas to Europe, eventually heading back to the US next spring. Tickets are on sale now.
This year is special for the band as their 20th year together and with the recent release of their LP, You Hear Georgia. This album pays tribute to Southern rock and the Georgia sound and is “a wonderful blend of blues, rock and country from start to finish,” according to Outsider.
With the pandemic winding down, Blackberry Smoke is excited to get back to touring, like many artists today. “We are long overdue to get out to these great places and see some friends, family, brothers and sisters that we have really missed,” says lead singer Charlie Starr. “It’s going to be extra special playing these big rock n’ roll shows again!”
