Jaimoe, Marc Quiñones, Chuck Leavell, Steve Gorman and More to Join Gov’t Mule in Boston on NYE
Gov’t Mule have confirmed their New Year’s Eve plans. The group will break from tradition, bringing their always thematic December 31 show to Boston’s MGM Music Hall at Fenway for the first time. Billed as a Gov’t Mule & Friends celebration that promises to transplant the “Southern state of mind to Boston,” the night will boast appearances from founding Allman Brothers Band drummer, Jaimoe, longtime ABB percussionist Marc Quiñones, former ABB keyboardist/Rolling Stones touring member Chuck Leavell, founding Black Crowes drummer Steve Gorman, former Crowes guitarist Audley Freed, Drivin N Cryin frontman Kevn Kinney and keyboardist Reese Wynans, who took part in the jam sessions that led to the Allman Brothers’ formation and performed in Double Trouble. VIP options for the show will able be available.
Gov’t Mule usually play New Year’s Eve at New York’s Beacon Theatre, a tradition that dates back to 2002 with only a few interruptions. In fact, not counting a few cancellations and health-related postponements around the pandemic when the band did not play a show on December 31, the last time Gov’t Mule appeared at a venue besides the Beacon on New Year’s Eve was in 2008, when the theater was undergoing renovations and the group performed at the nearby Hammerstein Ballroom instead. Their last New Year’s Eve gig outside the Big Apple fell on December 31, 2000, before the Beacon tradition began, when they opened for Phil Lesh & Friends at Oaksland, CA’s Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center.

The Black Keys Welcome Sturgill Simpson, Marcus King and More in Nashville
Last night, The Black Keys kicked off a two-night stand at The Pinnacle in their adopted hometown of Nashville. Near the end of their set, The Black Keyes invited out another current Nashville star, Sturgill Simpson, for a cover of the Gladys Knight & the Pips classic “I Heard It Through the Grapevine.”
The Black Keys have covered the song a handful of times since debuting the track at Nashville’s Brooklyn Bowl in 2023, though yesterday’s psychedelic rendition marked their first performance of the enduring number this year. It also marked Simpson’s first on-stage appearance with the Ohio-bred duo. However, Simpson did record his new Johnny Blue Skies & the Dark Clouds album Mutiny After Midnight at Keys’ frontman Dan Auerbach’s Easy Eye Sound.
Earlier in the night, the Keys also welcomed some other familiar faces. First, opening act Eddie 9V sat in on early Keys cut “Just Couldn’t Tie Me Down,” from 2004’s Rubber Factory, and then Greenville, SC-bred, Nashville-based guitarist Marcus King, who has worked closely in the studio with Auerbach, made a surprise appearance on Willie Griffin’s “Where There’s Smoke, There’s Fire.”

The Black Crowes’ Bust-Out Trend Continues
Last night, The Black Crowes’ Southern Hospitality tour stopped at Catoosa, OK’s The Hard Rock Live. The reactivated group’s current run has featured a number of bust outs and cover debuts and the trend continued yesterday. A few songs into their extended set, the Crowes revived the Three Snakes and One Charm song “One Mirror Too Many” for the first time since April 23, 2013, before the members of the group parted ways for several years. From there, the ensemble moved right into the next song off that 1996 LP, “Blackberry,” which they had not played live since August 14, 2013. Three Snakes and One Charm was released just over 30 years ago, on July 23, 1996.
Those tunes weren’t The Black Crowes’ only track revivals this week. While headlining Lincoln, NE’s Pinewood Bowl Amphitheater on Tuesday, the group dusted off David Bowie’s “The Jean Genie,” marking the first time they have performed the track—which originally appeared on the 1973 LP Aladdin Sane—this year. Then, during their encore, the Crowes surprised the crowd by offering their spin on The Rolling Stones’ “Happy,” from the landmark 1972 release Exile on Main St., for the first time since December 6, 2013. Moreover, this past Saturday at Colorado Springs, CO’s Ford Amphitheatre, the musicians reintroduced the Warpaint original “Whoa Mule” for the first time since November 22, 2013, and last Friday at Riverside, MO’s Morton Amphitheater, they pulled out the Lions cut “No Use Lying” for the first time since November 13, 2013.
The Black Crowes’ run will resume in Houston, TX tomorrow. As previously reported, members of the band also made use of their day off last week to sit in with Tedeschi Trucks Band at Morrison, CO’s Red Rocks.

Timed with the Days Between, the collection will also support WhyHunger and its mission to end hunger.

Garcia had a lifelong interest in fine art and focused on the medium in a more professional setting later in life. As the Jerry Garcia Birthday Collection’s announcement explains, “Long before he picked up a guitar, Garcia picked up a pencil. Throughout his life he continued to draw, paint and experiment across watercolor, ink, pencil, marker, airbrush and digital media, creating a deeply personal body of work that reflected the same imagination, curiosity and spirit of improvisation that defined his music.”
The Fandiem Relics Jerry Garcia Birthday Collection features a curated selection of Garcia’s artwork reproduced as museum quality giclée prints, including limited-edition numbered works and select rare artist proof editions. Each print is produced on premium 17 x 22 inch Somerset Velvet 100% cotton rag fine art paper, with numbered editions limited to only 500 prints worldwide. As mentioned above, every piece also includes an official certificate of authenticity from The Jerry Garcia Foundation, individually numbered within the edition and signed by Jerry’s daughter Keelin and his wife Manasha. Collectors will also receive an exclusive Jerry Garcia coloring book celebrating his artistic legacy.

Oteil Burbridge and Lamar Williams Jr. : The Offering
It was inevitable that Oteil Burbridge and Lamar Williams Jr. would find kinship together. The Allman Brothers Band’s low-end runs through both musicians: Williams is the son of ’70s ABB bassist Lamar Williams; Burbridge assumed that role in the late ’90s. With The Offering, Burbridge and Williams tap into that familial energy for a collaborative album of originals that nod to those roots but sprout up new branches in surprising ways. Most notably, Burbridge plays banjo throughout The Offering and most of these songs started on banjo nearly a decade ago with Williams adding lyrics to Burbridge’s rhythmic melodies.
In the time since those early writing sessions, Burbridge joined the Grateful Dead universe, and Williams sang with the New Mastersounds and the North Mississippi Allstars. When their schedules freed up, the duo flew to Iceland to track eight songs with producer Alan Evans (Soulive) and members of Burbridge’s rotating Oteil and Friends project—Melvin Seals, John Morgan Kimock, Weedie Braimah, Jason Crosby, and Tom Guarna.
Banjo is the driving force for many of these songs, but you wouldn’t call it bluegrass. Much like Béla Fleck, Burbridge takes a jazzy, driving, groove-based approach to the instrument with Williams adding his soulful vocals, a dynamic evident on the uplifting “The Way We Rise” and the socially minded “Love & War.” As a whole, The Offering mixes elements of soul (“Hush”), jazz, blues (“First Born”), West African rhythms, and jamband-style improv. “If Their Lips Moving” includes a heady jam section that sounds like “Eleanor Rigby” meets “In Memory of Elizabeth Reed” because no matter how far they get from it, you can’t fully keep the Allman DNA out of the music Burbridge and Williams make together.

Gov’t Mule Welcome JJ Grey & Mofro for Van Morrison Tribute
Last night, Gov’t Mule’s extended summer tour pulled into Lewiston, NY’s Artpark. JJ Grey & Mofro supplied support duties and, at the end of Gov’t Mule’s show, members of the Florida-based group returned to the stage for a collaborative moment.
After Mule ran through the original “Shake Our Way Out,” from the 2023 LP Peace...Like A River, Grey emerged to sing and play harmonica with the quartet on Van Morrison’s famed “Tupelo Honey.” Several of Grey’s bandmates circled back to the stage with the Mofro leader as well, including bassist Todd Smallie—a veteran of Derek Tucks Band—trumpeter Dennis Marion, saxophonist Darren Escar, keyboardist Eric Brigmond and background vocalists Katie Dutton and Linzy Lauren. Gov’t Mule then closed their set sans guests with “Mr. Man,” before returning to the stage for the lone encore of “Bring On The Music.”
Gov’t Mule will perform at Atlantic City, NJ’s The Showroom at the Tropicana this evening while Grey and Mofro will appear at Seaside Heights, NJ’s Seaside Heights Beach.

Grace Bowers Shifts Direction on New EP
Grace Bowers will begin a new era with the release of her forthcoming EP, simply titled Grace, on November 5. The set will not only showcase the 20-year-old guitar virtuoso’s instrumental abilities bur also her skills as a vocalist and songwriter. Along with the EP announcement, Bowers has also shared the set’s lead single, “Eat Shit and Live.”
“It’s a sarcastic, angry song about me being fed up with stupid people, pretty much,” Bowers said in a statement.
The title had been sitting in Bowers’ Notes app for months, waiting for the right moment. During a songwriting session, she rediscovered the phrase while searching through old ideas for lyrics to match a guitar riff she’d unearthed from a voice memo. “I scrolled through all the random shit I have in there, and that one just stuck out to me,” she explained. “The song came together in an hour or two. It just flowed.”

Oliver Wood Confirms September to Solo Shows, New Improv Band

The short run will kick off in Naples, NY on September 25, before touching down in Saratoga Springs, NY on September 26, Arundel, ME on September 28, Exeter, NH on September 29 and Northampton, MA on September 30. The Wood Brothers frontman will be joined by Ric Robertson as direct support at all five shows. In Exeter, Wood will offer two shows in a single day at the intimate The Word Barn.
Just prior to those headlining gigs, Wood will also appear at Nashville, TN’s Harken Hall on September 12, sharing a bill with Lola Kirke and Carlene Carter as part of the Grassroots & Nudie Suits Festival.
At his upcoming gigs, Wood is expected to focus on material from his two solo albums, 2021’s Always Smilin’ and 2024’s Fat Cat Silhouette, as well as offer choice renditions of “songs that frequently showcase his love for mid-20th-century country blues.” In a solo setting, Wood also regularly pulls out material from his pre-Wood Brothers band, the Atlanta-based King Johnson, who were cult favorites on the Southern music circuit in the late ’90s and early 2000s.

Sierra Ferrell Drops First Single of 2026 Ahead of Outside Lands
Sierra Ferrell has released a new song, “Trying to Love You.” The surprise drop marks Ferrell’s first new single of 2026, and her first original solo track to be produced by Grammy-nominated, Nashville-based musician and songwriter Gabriel Kelley. Written by Ferrell, “Trying to Love You” has already popped up in the musician’s recent sets on her current Heavy Petal Tour.
According to a release, “‘Trying to Love You’ is the story of a homebound journey filled with fine lines, lingering questions and memories of someone slipping through her hands.” An ace back that includes Kelley (percussion, piano, wurlitzer, B-3, guitars), Matty Meyer (drums), Billy Contreras (fiddle), Pat Bergeson (harmonica) and Viktor Krauss (bass) are featured on the track while Kelley, Oliver Bates Craven, Geoff Saunders and Joshua Rilko provide background vocals.
Later today, the Charleston, WV-bred Ferrell will play her inaugural set at San Francisco’s Outside Lands. Looking slightly ahead, she also has a big return appearance at Morrison, CO’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre slated for August 12. The Brudi Brothers and Aurelia Anne Cohen will provide support duties.

“This is a super important room for smaller artists to get their start,” says Cat Ridgeway of The Social in Orlando. “Being able to get a foothold in a room that has this much respect and notoriety around town. It creates a sense of community that snowballs over time.”
“It's a good energy,” adds Natty Knox. “Tonight I got to experience my first performance at the social. You can feel the vibes and the love. So it's just a joy being here and seeing the people loving the music.”
The Social is intimate live music room founded in 2001 on North Orange Avenue in downtown Orlando, FL. Six years earlier, Shayni Rae and Jim Faherty opened the Sapphire Supper Club in this same location, which soon became a gathering place for Orlando's alternative scene, with early appearances by Seven Mary Three, My Friend Steve, and Matchbox 20. The room is next door to the Beacham Theater, which opened in 1921 and as artists develop they often move from The Social to the adjacent venue.
