Blues Traveler Extends Tour

Blues Traveler by Brent Goldman

Blues Traveler by Brent Goldman

Last year, Blues Traveler celebrated the 30th anniversary of its Grammy-winning “Run-Around” hit with a huge tour. This year, the band originally from Princeton has added a slew of dates with Gin Blossoms, about which frontman John Popper says, “It’s rare when a package feels so much like home that it carries a spirit which becomes tangible to an audience. That was the case — by all accounts — regarding our summer tour last year with Spin Doctors and Gin Blossoms. We grew up with Spin Doctors as pups in the same litter… ours is a shared origin story. But working with Gin Blossoms was a first. Their music was everywhere when we were coming up, and yet only last summer did we have the opportunity to learn how fun it is playing with them — and to discover how much energy our three bands put out in combination. So, we’ve decided to take this show everywhere we missed last year. We’re excited to bring it to you.”
