The 2011 Jackson Browne Solo Acoustic Tour started in February. Browne plays piano and guitar and performs songs that span the entire musical catalog of his lengthy career, with set lists that vary each evening. Jackson brings various guitars out with him on the road. This time he will be taking the newly released Jackson Browne Gibson Signature acoustic guitar with him. The guitar is handmade and inspired by the legendary 1930′s Gibson Roy Smeck model. It’s the first guitar bearing Jackson Browne’s name.
Solo performances of Browne’s have been captured with two lives albums: 2005′s “Jackson Browne- Solo Acoustic, Vol. 1,” which was nominated for a Grammy, and 2008′s “Jackson Browne- Solo Acoustic, Vol. 2”. Both sets were released by Inside Recordings. Anthony DeCurtis in his four star Rolling Stone review of Volume 2 wrote Browne, between songs, speaks of his music and life with candor that is moving. Browne’s at this best here. He engages his audience, the world surrounding him and his own experiences, all in songs which won’t be losing their resonance for a very long time.
Jackson Browne is ready to embark on a 34-city tour across the US with cohort David Lindley. The adventure will set sail July 18 in Rancho Mirage, California and run through September 24 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. A full outline of Jackson Browne tour dates are fleshed out below.
Browne’s last studio effort was 2008s “Time the Conquerer,” and he used most of last year touring in support of it. He’ll be joined on the road by his backing band comprised of Kevin McCormick (bass), Mauricio Lewak (drum), Mark Goldenberg (guitar) and Jeff Young (keyboard, vocals). Browne’s partner in crime on this trek is David Lindley, a 70s sideman who worked with Warren Zevon, Jackson Browne and Crosby & Nash back in the glory days. He made a name for himself when he broke through in the early 80s with the album “El-Rayo-X.” He’s currently supporting his latest effort “Mercury Blues.” Jackson Browne and David Lindley will be releasing a two-disk live set gathering performances from the duos 2006 tour. Look for it in stores on May 11.
