ZBB launches The Owl Tour
Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real will open select stops.
The band also is slated to release a new studio album featuring the lead single, "Someone I Used To Know." Both "The Owl Tour" and forthcoming album draw inspiration from the mythology and mystery surrounding the Great Horned Owl that can see perfectly in the night, serving as a guide when we need sight in even the darkest of moments.
"The Owl Tour" will mark Zac Brown Band's third consecutive touring run within the span of one year. The summer 2019 shows will follow the band's forthcoming spring 2019 "Down The Rabbit Hole Live Tour," an extension of the summer 2018 "Down the Rabbit Hole Live Tour" dates, which broke multiple records including the most consecutive sold out shows at Fenway.
"With 'The Owl Tour,' our fans can expect some new and unexpected sounds woven into the signature Zac Brown Band live music experience," said Brown. "The owl holds special meaning for us, and we look forward to sharing this with everyone."

CD reviews for Zac Brown Band
If you have even a passing familiarity of Zac Brown's personal history starting around 2018, you know the inspiration for this CD's title. First, Brown's 12-year marriage collapsed. Then, the world shook its collective head when he released a solo pop record ("Controversy") simultaneous to a ZBB release ("The Owl"). Why saturate the market with oneself, especially when the solo outing was a mess? The cover of that pop/hip-hop experimentation said it all: Brown, ...
With "Welcome Home," the Zac Brown Band continues to do what it does best, which is making quality roots music. In fact, one of the album's songs is even titled "Roots." Brown may not be the most religious guy, but his latest songs focus on many truly spiritual cornerstones of life: family and friends.
Both "Family Table" and "My Old Man" find Brown reflecting on his family life, with the latter also looking at 'the here and now' of being a father himself. ...
Fans looking for the Zac Brown Band of 2005 won't find it in "Jekyll + Hyde" - there's nothing but an aftertaste of the Georgia group's chicken-fried origins. That might be why the album's name is so appropriate. Fans have gotten to know the country-folk band, but a deviant creeps in on all 16 tracks of its fourth album. And, like the classic story, Hyde stands out as more interesting.
It hits hard, too. The opener, "Beautiful Drug," has an electric-pop ...
