Gov't Mule have announced the Bring On the Music fall tour, which kicks off September 12 in Portland, Maine.
The new tour follows the release of the live film and album Bring On the Music —Live at the Capitol Theatre, directed by Danny Clinch. The package gathers material from two shows at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York, on April 27 and 28 of 2018, as well as interviews with the band members and backstage footage.
In a statement, Mule leader Warren Haynes said:
“25 years. By the time you see and hear the performances from these two shows, Gov’t Mule will have celebrated 25 years as a band — something we never could have imagined. It’s no easy task keeping a band together for 25 years. You don’t get to do that without having built, nurtured, depended on, tested, damaged and rebuilt important relationships. In fact, with any band that’s stayed around that long, it’s all about relationships. When we made the decision to document where the band is currently (musically speaking), it immediately occurred to us that this would be, among other things, a celebration of a lot of those relationships — starting with the one between the four of us.”
Pre-sale tickets for all shows are available now, with the general on-sale beginning July 26.
