The legendary rocker will be joined by his regular live lineup of drummer Matt Sorum and guitarist Austin Hanks for the series, which will mix headline dates with festival appearances when it opens at the Sweden Rock Festival on June 10.
Billed as "The Big One – Part 1" 2023 tour, the month-long run will see Gibbons and company play 20 shows in 12 countries by the time it wraps up in mid-July.
Tickets will go on sale this Friday, January 27 via the usual outlets.
Sorum and Hanks joined Gibbons on his third solo album, 2021’s “Hardware”; they recorded the set at Escape Studio in California’s high desert, near Palm Springs, and launched the project with the lead single, “West Coast Junkie.”
Gibbons will regroup with ZZ Top for shows in New Zealand next month ahead of a spring series of US dates.
