We’ve got the “Lowdown” scoop of the year for you.
Classic rock legend Boz Scaggs just announced he’s returning to the stage for his 18-concert ‘Summer 23 Tour’ which will take him all over the U.S. from May 11 through June 10 this year.
That includes gigs at Albany, NY’s The Egg on May 14, Rochester, NY’s Kodak Center on May 23 and Red Bank, NJ’s Hackensack Meridian Health Theatre on May 27.
While fans can likely expect a walk down memory lane when the 78-year-old Scaggs busts out the hits from his seminal 1976 album “Silk Degrees,” don’t be surprised if he also introduces tracks from his soulful 2013 record “Georgia” or 2019’s Grammy-nominated “Out Of The Blues.”
