Country group Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real have announced that they will be headlining a tour this Fall 2021. Tickets went on sale Friday, June 25 at 10 a.m. through their website.
The tour is set to kick off in Pioneertown, CA at Pappy & Harriet’s on September 3, and will come to a close in Portland, OR at the Crystal Ballroom on November 22. The tour is set to have an extensive timeline with a total of 51 shows across 26 states. The band will perform at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO on September 17, along with The Vic Theatre in Chicago, IL on September 30 and the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles, CA on November 15.
The tour announcement comes in support of their recently released album, A Few Stars Apart. The album was inspired by the time Nelson spent with his family in his home state of Texas during the pandemic. Nelson said, “There’s a story being told through the whole record. A story about connection and coming home.”
A few months before the release of their album, Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real began releasing singles. The first single, “Perennial Bloom,” was released in April, followed by “Leave ‘em Behind” in May. According to Nelson, “Leave ‘em Behind” was one of his favorite tracks on the album, as he writes about a friend in an abusive relationship on the song. The band’s previous album Turn Off The News (Build A Garden) came out in June 2019 which was also followed by a tour, including a performance at Farm Aid 2019.
