Rock and roll legend, Robert Plant and acclaimed country musician, Alison Krauss, who has won 27 Grammy awards, have announced new dates for their tour in honor of their albums Raise the Roof (2021) and Raising Sand (2007). The tour, starting in June, will continue to September. The duo also has performances scheduled at the upcoming Bonnaroo and Glastonbury festivals.
The presale for the newly-added tour dates will begin at 10:00 am EDT on April 12. On the other hand, general on-sale of tickets will begin on April 15, at 10:00 am EDT on Friday. The tickets can be purchased from Ticketmaster or plantkrauss.com
Robert Plant was the frontman of Led Zeppelin, often termed as a rock god, while Alison Krauss is famous for bluegrass and Americana music. In November 2021, NYT quoted Robert Plant as saying:
“We were from two radically different worlds.”
He further said:
“We’ve got a kind of a personality which we could pursue as two singers, a neat place that we made for ourselves. I just liked the idea of actually singing together throughout an entire show, more or less with somebody. Concentrating, listening, being free-form at times. Letting it rip, then being pretty controlled and organised and following instructions from her. And then, sometimes, letting go so she can’t catch me.”
The duo reunited after fourteen years in 2019, to release a sequel for Raising Sand called Raise the Roof.
