JACKSON BROWNE ANNOUNCES EAST COAST TOUR DATES; 
STOPS AT BETHEL WOODS ON SATURDAY, JULY 6TH 
With special guest Lucius


 
BETHEL, NY (February 07, 2019) – Singer-songwriter Jackson Browne adds more shows to his East Coast Tour, which concludes with a performance at Bethel Woods Center for the Arts at the historic site of the 1969 Woodstock festival in Bethel, NY on Saturday, July 6th.

Tickets go on sale Friday, February 15th at 10:00 AM and are available atwww.BethelWoodsCenter.orgwww.Ticketmaster.com, Ticketmaster outlets, or by phone at 1.800.745.3000.

Along with special guest Lucius, accompanying Jackson this June & July are longtime band mates Bob Glaub (bass), Mauricio Lewak (drums), Val McCallum (guitar), Alethea Mills (vocals), Chavonne Stewart (vocals), Jeff Young (keyboards, vocals), and the acclaimed multi-instrumentalist Greg Leisz (guitar, lap steel, pedal steel). 

Lucius and Jackson first met in 2015 on the set of the Cameron Crowe created show Roadies.  Fronted by the enchanting Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig, Lucius has drawn acclaim for powerful songs showcasing taut hooks, along with their mesmerizing stage presence and bold visual aesthetics.  TheNew York Times described Wolfe and Laessig’s vocals as being “especially gorgeous,” while Rolling Stone says Lucius is “powerful enough to knock you over.”  Talented multi-instrumentalists Peter Lalish and Dan Molad round out the group.

"I went to my first Lucius concert thinking I knew what they do," said Jackson Browne.  "I had sung a little with Jess and Holly, and I was enchanted by them and by their unique singing. But I was amazed to discover the depth and the originality of this band. Their songs and their arrangements, their huge dynamics - they just blew me away. Then I saw them a second time in a smaller venue, and it was so intimate, and again, on a whole other level, I was fascinated by the unique collaboration taking place. I'm excited that I get to appear with Lucius this summer, and that my audience will have a chance to hear this great band. And of course, I'm really happy to have the chance to play for their audience too. My band and their band - these shows will be epic!"
