The Infamous Stringdusters rarely take a break from the road. Already midway through a busy summer of festival dates and headlining shows, the Grammy-winning bluegrassers have announced another round of show dates, with plans to remain on tour throughout much of 2018.
"We are in this together, and we are so excited for our fall tour when we will get together as a community and feel the positive energy we all make together," says guitarist Andy Falco in a press statement. Rounded out by dobro player Andy Hall, banjo player Chris Pandolfi, fiddler Jeremy Garrett and upright bassist Travis Book, the Stringdusters will use the upcoming shows to whip up anticipation for their ninth studio album, which will double as the first record to be released via the band's own label, Tape Time Records.
The Infamous Stringdusters' still-untitled album was recorded in Denver, not far from the legendary outdoor venue, Red Rocks Ampitheatre, that will host the band's co-headlining gig with Yonder Mountain String Band on August 4th. Other highlights of the Stringdusters' expanded schedule include a pair of Lake Tahoe gigs on July 17th and 18th, both of which will serve as musical afterparties for Phish' concerts at the nearby Lake Tahoe Outdoor Arena. The group will also spend time traveling the east coast, with shows in Asheville, New York City and Charlotte all scheduled for November. Finally, the schedule ends — for now — with a multi-day stay at the Strings & Sol bluegrass festival in Puerto Morelos, Mexico.
