Keb' Mo' , who has been on the North American tour trail since mid-May, has tacked several miscellaneous shows onto his sweeping theater tour, which now runs into 2010.
The Grammy-winning bluesman continues the outing with a Sept. 6 performance at Ventura, CA's Ventura Hillsides Music Festival, before heading east. Since last check, another 18 gigs have been added to the itinerary, which will crisscross the nation before year's end. Among the new dates: a spot on the weeklong Caribbean-bound Legendary Rhythm & Blues Cruise alongside Taj Mahal, Johnny Winter and many others, which leaves Fort Lauderdale, FL, Jan. 23. Details are shown below.
Keb' Mo' unveiled his most recent album and eighth studio set, "Suitcase," in the summer of 2006. The record, the follow-up to 2004's "Peace...Back by Popular Demand," took the top spot of Billboard's Top Blues Albums chart upon its release.
In January, Mo' debuted the single "A Brand New America" in conjunction with President Barack Obama's inauguration. According to Mo's website, the bluesman is anticipating the release of a new studio effort sometime this year.
