Ziggy Marley and Gov't Mule Announce Dreaming The Same Dream Tour
(fcc) Nine-time GRAMMY-winning reggae icon Ziggy Marley and acclaimed GRAMMY-nominated band Gov't Mule, led by GRAMMY-winning guitar legend, vocalist, songwriter and producer Warren Haynes, have announced the Dreaming The Same Dream Tour.
The 16-date co-headlining fall outing - also featuring a guest DJ set from YOLA - reunites Marley and Haynes who have notably collaborated to co-write the song "Dreaming the Same Dream," of which the tour is named after.
The Dreaming The Same Dream Tour will launch September 23rd in New York City at The Rooftop at Pier 17. The tour will stop in six cities in Florida (Key West, Hollywood, St. Augustine, Clearwater, Ft. Myers and Tallahassee) and Atlanta, among many other markets, before reaching Texas for four nights across The Lone Star State to conclude, stopping in Sugar Land, San Antonio, Austin, and lastly Dallas, where it officially wraps on October 17th.
Artist fan club presale tickets will be available starting Wednesday, June 3rd at 12pm ET with local presales beginning Thursday, June 4th at 10am local time. The general on-sale will commence Friday, June 5th at 10am local time. $2 per ticket for the Dreaming The Same Dream Tour will be donated to Food For The Poor Jamaica to provide relief and humanitarian efforts in the wake of Hurricane Melissa, the most destructive storm in Jamaica's history. Food for the Poor will directly support ongoing shelter needs, food, clean water access and medical care - as well the long-term rebuilding of communities in Jamaica.
"It's gonna be a great jam session being on tour with Warren and the crew," says Ziggy. "I'm looking forward to the vibes."
"I'm really looking forward to the tour with Ziggy Marley," shares Haynes. "We've known each other a long time and have shared the stage a few times but never done a tour together. There's definitely an overlap between the two audiences, but I think a lot of Mule fans will be hearing Ziggy for the first time and a lot of Ziggy fans will be hearing Mule for the first time, which is great."
"I was honored when Gov't Mule and Ziggy Marley asked me to come on tour as their DJ/MC with the mostest," adds YOLA. "A lot of people don't know this but the only reason I'm in America today and was able to get signed here was because of dance music. My hometown of Bristol in the UK has a legacy of DJs specifically coming from our city. I cut my teeth there in the jazz, rock then dance scenes and met DJs and dance acts that I'd eventually tour and collaborate with. Getting to represent this part of my life in DJ form on tour with Mule and Ziggy is a full circle moment that I don't think I'd have gotten if I didn't tell my story and insist on being a fluid of genre and artistically whole woman."
