(2b) Steve Earle announces his Fifty Years of Songs and Stories, a solo acoustic tour sprawling journey across over 50 cities in the U.S. and Canada. Marking half a century since he began writing songs and stories, this solo acoustic tour will take fans on a chronological exploration of his extensive discography.
Along the way, Earle will share personal anecdotes from his legendary career, offering an intimate look at the moments that shaped his music. In addition to his solo acoustic dates, Earle will also perform select shows with Reckless Kelly, co-headline dates with Taj Mahal, and open for Parker McCollum.
Kicking off on May 25 at the Princess Theater Centre for the Performing Arts in Decatur, AL, the tour will make stops at renowned venues such as The Vic Theatre in Chicago, IL; Dos Equis Pavilion in Dallas, TX; Calgary Folk Festival in Calgary, Alberta; and the Egyptian Theatre in Park City, UT, before concluding at the Rhythm & Roots Festival at Ninigret Park in Charlestown, RI, on August 31.
In regards to the tour Steve said "Awhile back I was interviewing John Hiatt on my radio show and we realized that we had known each other for fifty years. I met John in 1975, my first full year in Nashville and it occurred to me that the oldest songs that I still play (there are 3) were written that year. Now, I live to follow creative rabbits down holes and I'm old enough, now, that the idea of legacy comes up now and then, so, I decided that a more or less chronological live songbook might make for an interesting evening of music."
