There’s just no stopping Bob Weir, as the Grateful Dead guitarist has announced five spring tour dates for his newly formed Campfire Band in support of the 2016 solo release, Blue Mountain. Comprised of Bryce Dessner, Aaron Dessner, Bryan Devendorf, Scott Devendorf and Josh Kaufman, the acoustic ensemble will support Weir for shows in Texas, Louisiana, and Alabama.
The tour begins on April 13th in Dallas, before Weir and co. head to Austin, TX for two nights at the Moody Theatre for the long running Austin City Limits program. The fun doesn’t stop there, as the band will go on to play shows in New Orleans, LA and Mobile, AL on April 18th and 19th, respectively.
Weir recently reunited the Campfire Band at Bryce Dessner’s MusicNOW Festival, and did promise more Campfire dates ahead. We’ll be sure to update if more tour dates get announced. In the meantime, Weir has been keeping busy by performing at NAMM and at the Sundance Film Festival Grateful Dead documentary premiere. He’s also set to head to Los Muertos Con Queso this weekend, and has Dead & Company tour dates plotted through the summer. The music never stopped!
