After an 18 month hiatus due to the Covid-19 lockdown, Tesla has announced their return to performing live concerts with the “Let’s Get Real!” tour – beginning August 5. The 2021 tour will include many shows with Lynyrd Skynyrd, and will continue through November – across the U.S. and Mexico. Tickets are available now here.
Over the course of their 35-year career, the iconic American hard rock quintet—Frank Hannon (guitar), Brian Wheat (bass), Jeff Keith (lead vocals), Troy Luccketta (drums), and Dave Rude (guitar)—have sold more than 25 million albums domestically, including a string of Top 20 studio albums, and performed globally.
In the July 15 tour announcement, Hannon said, “We are so excited and anxious to get back to performing ‘real’ live concerts again. There’s nothing like the energy of being in the same spontaneous moment with an audience. We are planning some surprises for our fans on this upcoming tour by playing some deeper Tesla cuts as well as a fresh new song we just wrote. Of course we will play the hits as well!”
Watch them perform their cover of “Signs” in 2019, a Top 10 single for the band in 1991
