For the first time since his 2019 ‘U.S. Spring Tour,’ Al Green is going on tour.
It’s a short one though.
As of now, the legendary R&B singer has just three shows lined up this year — two in July and one in September.
First up, the 77-year-old Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee is slated to perform at Morrison, CO’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre with the Colorado Symphony on Wednesday, July 12.
After that, he’ll headline at the Cincinnati Music Festival on July 21-22 along with megastars like Snoop Dogg, Jill Scott, Babyface, Jodeci, P-Funk Connection and more.
Finally, Green will close his brief run of gigs at Highland, CA’s Yaamava Resort and Casino on Saturday, Sept. 30.
Best of all, some tickets are fairly inexpensive to see the timeless crooner live.
At the time of publication, we found seats going for as low as $33 before fees on Vivid Seats.
Want to hear “Let’s Stay Together,” “Love and Happiness,” “Take Me To The River,” “Tired Of Being Alone,” “I’m Still In Love With You” and more live?
