After drummer Frank Beard re-joined ZZ Top’s Elevation Tour earlier this month, having fully recovered from foot and ankle issues, “That Lil Old Band from Texas” has announced over a dozen new dates that take them across North America. Stops in Oklahoma, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Nevada, California, Arizona, New Mexico, Louisiana and their home state have been added to the itinerary.
Support acts who will share the bill with ZZ Top on the tour dates include Night Ranger, Payton Smith, Black Stone Cherry, Molly Hatchet and The Wallflowers. ZZ Top has been at it for well over a half century, delivering rock, blues and boogie on stage and in studio to millions of devoted fans. With iconography as distinctive as their sound, ZZ Top is globally recognized by their beards, hotrod cars, spinning guitars and that magic keychain, all of which transcend geography and language.
The band’s Billy F Gibbons commented, “This has been a great tour so we figured it would be a good idea to add some additional dates to keep the good times rolling. Come on out and see us at a concert venue near you.”
As a touring outfit, they’ve been without peer over the past five decades, having performed before millions of fans over four continents and have been the subject of their own Grammy-nominated documentary titled That Little Ol’ Band from Texas.
ZZ Top has sold millions of records over the course of their career, have been officially designated as Heroes of The State of Texas, inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (by Keith Richards, no less) and have been referenced in countless cartoons and sitcoms. They are true rock icons and, against all odds, they’re really just doing what they’ve always done. ZZ Top abides!
