Kicking off on Wednesday, February 11, at Summit in Denver, CO, the tour will see Shannon & Narducy, Jon Wurster (drums), John Stirratt (bass), Dag Juhlin (guitar) and Vijay Tellis-Nayak (keyboards) playing Lifes Rich Pageant in full each night in addition to many other beloved R.E.M. classics.

“It dumbfounds and delights me that we continue our crusade through this astounding catalogue of music from one of America’s most influential and unique bands,” Shannon comments. “Now we find ourselves at a summit, LIFES RICH PAGEANT, and we’re all pinching ourselves in disbelief to be so lucky. The most strange and beautiful adventure.”
