Alison Krauss & Union Station featuring Jerry Douglas announced on Instagram on Tuesday (November 3) that they are setting out on their first tour in a decade. The Arcadia 2025 Tour will find the beloved country and bluegrass band – which now features the addition of vocalist-guitarist Russell Moore – performing 73 dates across the United States and Canada next spring and summer. The tour kicks off with a two-night stand at The Louisville Palace in Louisville on April 17-18, then rolls across most of the country on the sprawling jaunt, including high-profile shows in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, New York, and a hometown show in Nashville, before finishing up in Davie, Florida on September 28. Opening act will be special guest Willie Watson, a co-founder of Old Crow Medicine Show. Alison Krauss & Union Station are also planning on releasing new music next year, which would serve as the long-awaited follow-up to 2011’s Paper Airplane, which earned a Grammy for Best Bluegrass Album.
