Robert Plant & Alison Krauss announce co-headlining tour: Here’s how to get tickets

Robert Plant and Alison Krauss are taking their musical chemistry out on the road.

Plant, a Rock & Roll Hall of Famer who sang for Led Zeppelin, and Krauss, a 27-time Grammy winner, will play nearly 30 headline dates on the Can’t Let Go Tour, which kicks off June 2 in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. this Friday, following a series of presales beginning at 10 a.m. Feb. 14. Find more information at plantkrauss.com.

Dates will feature support from JD McPherson, who also plays lead guitar for Plant and Krauss, alongside an ace ensemble of drummer Jay Bellerose, bassist Dennis Crouch, string player Stuart Duncan and Viktor Krauss on keys and guitar.

The tour’s set list will draw from the musicians’ pair of acclaimed albums: 2007’s Grammy-sweeping “Raising Sand” and 2021’s “Raise the Roof,” both produced by Bob Dylan guitarist T Bone Burnett. Plant and Krauss will deliver a fusion of early blues, country deep cuts, revolutionary folk-rock and lost soul music written by the likes of Merle Haggard, The Everly Brothers, Ola Belle Reed, Brenda Burns and more. They’ll also be reimagining Led Zeppelin cuts such as “The Battle of Evermore,” “Rock & Roll” and “When the Levee Breaks.”
