Gov’t Mule Announces 30 Years Strong Tour for February 2024

“This EP, aptly titled Time Of The Signs, is made up of four additional songs that were written and recorded during the sessions for Peace…Like A River,” says Haynes. “But these four songs seemed to belong together in the same way that the original 12 on the album belong together, so we decided to make a companion piece. The EP also includes a different version of ‘The River Only Flows One Way,’ which could have gone either way (no pun intended).”

Peace…Like A River (released in June via Fantasy Records) marks the 12th studio album from Gov’t Mule and the follow-up to their chart-topping, GRAMMY-nominated blues album, Heavy Load Blues. The 12-song rock collection, hailed as “perfection,” “captivating,” “riveting,” and among the band’s best, includes the singles “Dreaming Out Loud” featuring Ivan Neville and Ruthie Foster, “Same As It Ever Was” and “Made My Peace” as well as additional guest appearances from Billy F Gibbons, Billy Bob Thornton (on “The River Only Flows One Way”) and Celisse. Peace…Like A River was recorded during the same sessions as Heavy Load Blues at The Power Station New England with co-producer John Paterno (Elvis Costello, Bonnie Raitt, Los Lobos) alongside Haynes. The albums, however, were created in different rooms, with no shared gear or instruments, keeping the two concurrent projects with their own unique identity and character. Thematically, the newest collection explores the seismic changes the world has gone through over the past few years. Influenced both in his songwriting and playing by what Haynes calls “the golden era of rock, soul, jazz and blues,” Gov’t Mule combines the best and most enduring qualities from all those musical strains to create a timeless piece of art on Peace…Like A River that could have easily come out in the 1970s. PRESS HERE to listen.

Gov’t Mule – Warren Haynes [guitar, vocals], Matt Abts [drums], Danny Louis [keyboards, guitar, and backing vocals], and Kevin Scott [bass] – is currently in the midst of the North American leg of their Peace…Like A River World Tour. Before concluding this weekend, the band will perform their final Dark Side of the Mule set this Saturday, October 14th in St. Augustine, FL. This year, Gov’t Mule revived their renowned and extremely rare Pink Floyd tribute, which they first debuted in 2008 and had only performed live 10 times prior to this summer’s amphitheater tour. Following a short break, the band will then bring their acclaimed live show to Europe November 6-21 for the next leg of the Peace…Like A River World Tour. Additionally, Gov’t Mule has their New Year’s Run from last year taking place December 29th in Philadelphia and December 30th and 31st in New York City and Island Exodus 14, their annual “concert-cation” experience in Jamaica, coming up. Full list of upcoming Gov’t Mule tour dates below.
