The iconic Beatles drummer is hitting the road summer 2025, as Ringo Starr and His All Starr Band have announced an exciting new tour across the United States. Kicking off on June 12 in Bridgeport, Connecticut, this tour represents a continuation of Starr's  legacy of bringing joy and timeless music to fans around the globe. Known for his signature message of “peace and love,” Starr will be coming to several major cities including New York City, Philadelphia, and Charlotte.

At each venue, fans can expect to see an unchanged lineup featuring the talents of Steve Lukather (Toto guitarist), Colin Hay (Men at Work frontman), Warren Ham, and other notable musicians like Hamish Stuart (Average White Band), all contributing to the dynamic mix that the All Starr Band is famous for. This lineup has stayed constant, reflecting Starr's satisfaction and musical chemistry with the group. “I absolutely love playing live and I love this band,” Starr shared, expressing his enthusiasm for the upcoming performances and his desire to maintain this well-received lineup.

The tour will also coincide with other significant events in Starr's career. It follows the release of his country album, “Look Up,” on January 10, 2025, promising an innovative fusion of classic sounds infused with new genre elements. This upcoming album includes collaborations with T Bone Burnett, who produced the album and co-wrote most of the tracks. The contributions from other esteemed artists like Alison Krauss suggest a rich tapestry of sounds that revive Starr's earlier “Beaucoups of Blues” and include fresh, country-inspired takes on classic tracks. The January concerts at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium will further celebrate this new venture, involving guest appearances from the likes of Jack White and showcasing songs from the album with a unique twist.

For fans looking to attend the shows, tickets will be available starting December 13, 2024.  Each venue is anticipated to deliver electrifying performances that resonate with attendees across generations, as Ringo Starr continues to deliver musical experiences that both honor the past and embrace contemporary sounds.
