Steve Miller Band and Peter Frampton Announce 2018 North American Tour
The Steve Miller Band and Peter Frampton are going back out on the road. They've announced a 10-week, 40-date tour of North America that they're calling an extension of last year's successful trek.
"Music is ethereal, it moves back and forth between the past and the future," Miller said in a press release. "I'm very excited to announce that 2018 is our 50th anniversary of recording and touring together as the Steve Miller Band, and we plan to travel between the psychedelic '60s through the future with a vengeance!"
The tour will begin at the Ford Center in Evansville, Ind., on June 12 and conclude with two shows (Aug. 25 and 26) at Chateau Ste. Michelle in Woodinville, Wash. Frampton is expected to come onstage in the middle of Miller's set for a nightly guitar duel, just like they did last year at various shows, including their Mountain Jam gig.
Tickets go on sale Feb. 16 at Ticketmaster at 10AM local time. You can see all the dates below and get full details at Miller's website.
Prior to the tour with Frampton, Miller will perform on the last day of the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. He's part of a lineup that includes Aerosmith, Sting, Bonnie Raitt and David Byrne performing over two weekends from April 27 to May 6.
