SAN DIEGO — Robert Plant and Alison Krauss’ 2022 summer U.S. “Raising the Roof” concert tour is adding some additional roofs to raise, starting with a mid-August date in San Diego.
Plant, the former Led Zeppelin singer, and Krauss, the bluegrass queen who has won 27 Grammy Awards, on Monday announced 13 new dates and cities for the tour. It’s their first joint concert trek since their “Raising Sand” tour in 2008.
The “Raising Sand” tour was named after Plant and Krauss’ first duo album, which went on to win six Grammys, including Album and Record of the Year. The two did not make another album together until last year’s “Raise the Roof,” which topped a number of 2021 “best of the year” lists.
Plant and Krauss’ newly announced 2022 tour leg will also include four other California dates: Aug. 17 at Santa Barbara Bowl; Aug. 18 at Los Angeles’ Greek Theatre; Aug. 21 at Berkeley’s Greek Theatre; and Aug. 23 at Napa’s Oxbow River Stage.
