Blues-rock powerhouse ZZ Ward is bringing her gritty grooves and soulful swagger back to the stage with the announcement of her 2026 Dirty Sun U.S. headline tour. To mark the occasion, Ward dropped a stunning live performance video of the blues classic “Dust My Broom,” recorded at the legendary EastWest Studios in Hollywood. The clip captures Ward at her fiery best, backed by a powerhouse band in a performance that blends raw blues authenticity with her signature modern edge.
“‘Dust My Broom’ was such a blast to record live with some of the best musicians around!! Can’t wait to hit this one at the next shows on the Dirty Sun Tour,” Ward shared. The track’s live rendition is pure blues electricity, a nod to the genre’s roots while showcasing Ward’s unstoppable presence as one of today’s most exciting blues-rock artists.
The Dirty Sun Tour kicks off February 24, 2026, in Berkeley, CA at Cornerstone, and will travel through major cities and intimate venues alike before wrapping up on March 29 in Boston, MA at City Winery.
