Jackson Browne, who begins a new solo acoustic tour this spring, has just announced dates with a full band this summer. He famously performed with another band earlier this month when he joined The Eagles at the Grammy Awards tribute to Glenn Frey. (See Best Classic Bands‘ item here.)
The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer has sold more than 18 million albums in the U.S. since he first hit the music scene, writing classic tunes like “Take It Easy,” “The Pretender,” “Running On Empty,” “Doctor My Eyes,” and “Somebody’s Baby.”
Browne was 24 when his self-titled debut album arrived in 1972, expertly melding almost naive idealism with incisive social commentary. The classic rock icon, now 67, is currently on tour performing a different set list each night on guitar and piano, featuring songs culled from his entire body of work. He released his 14th studio album, Standing in the Breach, in 2014, his first batch of new material in six years but as strikingly personal and political as ever.
Keep in mind that Browne is teaming up with James Taylor for concerts at two of America’s most beloved ballparks: June 30th at Chicago’s Wrigley Field and August 3rd at Boston’s Fenway Park.
The solo acoustic dates are already available. Advance tickets, VIP Packages, and GuacFund Benefit Seats for the dates with his band will be available beginning March 2nd at his website.
