Tour Dates: Frampton Comes Alive Again

After leaving Humble Pie in 1971 for a solo career, Peter Frampton found only marginal success on his own until the release of his 1976 seminal double-live album Frampton Comes Alive. The iconic record, which was recorded primarily at two stops during the Frampton’s 1975 summer and fall tours, peaked at number one on the Billboard charts in ’76 staying there for ten weeks and helped make the singer-guitarist a household name.

This summer, the classic album will turn 35 and as a way of celebrating this milestone anniversary Frampton has announced that he will revisit his signature record by playing it in its entirety, along with additional selections from his catalog, during his upcoming world tour. The tour will kick off on June 15 at the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank, NJ.

If you’re not into the full album thing, then maybe you’ll be interested in hitting one of these recently announced tours…

Finally, this summer two legends of quintessential American music will be teaming up for a string of dates together as bluegrass masters the Del McCoury Band will join forces with New Orleans institution the Preservation Hall Jazz Band. The unique pairing, who will release the collaborative effort American Legacies on April 12, will play 14 dates together in the coming months, which includes high profile appearances at DelFest and Bonnaroo X. For a taste of what’s to come, the duo is also currently offering up a free download of the track One More For I Die.
