According to Reuters, ROBERT PLANT's world tour with ALISON KRAUSS, a key obstacle to a potential LED ZEPPELIN reunion trek, will kick off in Louisville, KY, on April 20.
Krauss, the bluegrass queen, and Plant, who is a self-proclaimed "golden god,'' will be touring in support of their album Raising Sand, which opened at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 last fall. Other stops include Knoxville, TN, on April 22, Chattanooga, TN, on April 23 and Birmingham, AL, on April 26.
The tour's 11-date run in Europe follows in May. The duo will be joined on stage by T Bone Burnett, who produced the new album. A longer run of North American shows is planned for June and July, but dates and details have not yet been announced.
