The Back In The Saddle Tour finds Gov’t Mule – currently celebrating the 30th anniversary of their self-titled debut album – stopping in 29 cities throughout the East Coast and Midwest on their first big tour run since February 2024. Gov’t Mule also launched a series of co-headlining shows with longtime friends Tedeschi Trucks Band. The 6-date run stops in Toronto, Saratoga Springs, Boston, Chicago, and Detroit over the next week and then reconvenes on October 11th for a special show in Macon, Georgia, the home of the Allman Brothers Band (which Haynes and Derek Trucks were both members of for decades each).
Gov’t Mule – Warren Haynes [guitar, vocals], Matt Abts [drums], Danny Louis [keyboards, guitar, and backing vocals], and Kevin Scott [bass] – released their latest studio album, Peace…Like A River (Fantasy Records) in 2023 to high praise. The band’s 12th studio output, hailed as “perfection,” “captivating,” “riveting,” and among the band’s best, is a 12-song rock collection highlighted by 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 and Celisse.

The self-produced, soulful blues-rock collection – Haynes’s first solo album in nearly a decade – features the singles “This Life As We Know It” and “Real Real Love” as well as multiple appearances from Derek Trucks and Warren’s Last Waltz Tour co-stars Lukas Nelson and Jamey Johnson on the single “Day of Reckoning.” Listen here: https://found.ee/WHMillionVoicesWhisper and find the deluxe version here: https://ffm.to/wh-millionvoiceswhisperdeluxeedition On September 12th, Haynes, who partnered with Gibson earlier this year for his first signature guitar, the Gibson Warren Haynes Les Paul™ Standard, will release The Whisper Sessions, a 9-song, digital-only collection of stripped-down versions of songs off Million Voices Whisper including the singles “These Changes” featuring Trucks, “You Ain’t Above Me” and “From Here On Out.” The Whisper Sessions also includes a stunning version of the Allman Brothers Band classic “Melissa” with Trucks, who appears on three songs on the album.

For three decades, Gov’t Mule has galvanized a global fan base with their honest, organic and daring music and improvisational virtuosity, leading them to be recognized as one of the most timeless, revered and active bands in the world whose spot amongst rock titans remains unshakable. Led by visionary GRAMMY Award-winning artist, guitar legend, songwriter and producer Warren Haynes – a cornerstone of the American music landscape – the enduring, globally revered GRAMMY-nominated group has showcased its intelligence and breadth over the course of 20+ studio and live albums, thousands of memorable performances, and millions of album and track sales. Gov’t Mule’s most recent studio album, 2023’s Peace…Like A River (Fantasy Records) is a timeless rock collection featuring guest appearances from Billy F Gibbons, Ivan Neville, Billy Bob Thornton, Ruthie Foster, and Celisse. Peace…Like A River – hailed as “perfection,” “captivating,” “riveting,” and among the band’s best – marked the follow-up to Mule’s GRAMMY-nominated blues album, Heavy Load Blues, with both albums recorded at The Power Station New England during the same sessions but created in different rooms with no shared gear or instruments. Gov’t Mule – Haynes [guitar, vocals], Matt Abts [drums], Danny Louis [keyboards, guitar, and backing vocals], and Kevin Scott [bass] – has become a human encyclopedia of great American music while adding to that canon with their signature sound. The band’s flexible interplay in the studio and on stage makes them a true living, breathing ensemble and Haynes is lauded as one of the most formidable guitarists and vocalists of the modern era and a prolific songwriter and producer.
