Robert Earl Keen 2022 Tour Announcement – Farewell Tour Schedule
Robert Earl Keen is preparing for his farewell tour beginning in spring 2022, and it’s a bittersweet occasion for the Americana superstar. His final performances kick off May 6th in Round Rock, TX, and continue until early September with a three-night event in Helotes, TX.
“I been blessed with a lifetime of brilliant, talented, colorful, electric, and magical folks throughout my life,” the 66-year-old singer wrote in a surprise statement on his website. “This chorus of joy, this parade of passion, this bullrush of creativity, this colony of kindness and generosity are foremost in my thoughts TODAY.”
It’s with a mysterious concoction of joy and sadness that I want to tell you as of September 4th, 2022, I will no longer tour and perform publicly,” he continued. “I plan to continue to write songs, I also embrace this as an opportunity to further support the musical community and the ever expanding body of young talent on our horizon.” This younger generation has looked up to Robert Earl Keen for the entire 41 years he’s been performing. And while he may not be on the road anymore, he’ll still be in the hearts of Americana fans worldwide.
The influence of Robert Earl Keen is undeniable in the community of country, bluegrass, and roots music — a trifecta commonly referred to as Americana. The Texas hitmaker has released dozens of catchy singles, including “The Front Porch Song,” “Feelin’ Good Again,” and “That Buckin’ Song.” And of course, we can’t forget his signature song “The Road Goes On Forever,” an ironic title that will surely cause quite the reaction on the farewell Robert Earl Keen tour.
These songs have been covered by A-list country stars like George Strait and Lyle Lovett, but they sound simply beautiful in their original state… Robert Earl Keen’s raspy voice. And you cant miss the chance to hear them played live for the very last time on the farewell Robert Earl Keen tour. Get your tickets now!
