Blackberry Smoke will resurrect its canceled Spirit of the South tour with The Allman Betts Band, former Allman Brothers Band drummer Jaimoe, and The Wild Feathers this summer. The tour was initially slated for summer 2020 but was canceled due to the pandemic.
The tour kicks off on July 30th in Bridgeport, CT and takes the Southern Rock staples throughout the country to familiar venues including Nashville’s Ascend Amphitheater (8/20), Alpharetta’s Ameris Bank Amphitheatre (8/21), New York’s Pier 17 (8/25), Boston’s Rockland Trust Bank Pavilion (8/26), and Morrison’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre (10/28), among many others.

In the spirit of celebrating the heritage of Southern rock, each show on the Spirit of the South tour will culminate with a collaborative finale featuring Blackberry Smoke, The Allman Betts Band, Jaimoe, The Wild Feathers, and special surprise guests. Additionally, The Allman Brothers Band Museum at The Big House will have a new mobile set up on-site at each show, featuring never-before-seen archival material including original hand-written lyrics, family photographs, iconic clothing and jewelry, one-of-a-kind instruments played by the band, and more. Jaimoe will be available for meet and greet opportunities at each stop. All ticket holders will be granted free access to the museum with $1 of each ticket donated to The Allman Brothers Museum at The Big House to help preserve its history and heritage.
Tickets for the newly confirmed dates go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. local time. Visit Blackberry Smoke’s website for tickets and more details, and scroll down to see a full list of tour dates.
