Tom Petty & Black Crowes Join Up For Summer Tour

Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers have secured the reunited Black Crowes for much of a North American tour that will kick off in early June and remain on the road through late August. The run will mark Petty’s return to the touring circuit after a two-year break from large-scale outings.

Petty’s run will open June 8 in Ft. Myers, Fla. At deadline, 22 shows were confirmed, including a June 11 headlining slot on the rock stage at Atlanta’s 12th annual Music Midtown Festival.

The Crowes opened their first tour since October 2001 on Tuesday in New York. As previously reported, the group warmed up for its return by playing surprise club shows throughout the Northeast.

In related news, the Crowes have linked with Instant Live to provide authorized soundboard recordings of shows on its current run, but at deadline it was unclear when the venture will be up and running.
