Grammy Nominated Robert Randolph & the Family Band Announce Summer Tour Dates  Image

Robert Randolph & the Family Band have announced their summer tour dates, including over a dozen festival appearances. The multi Grammy-nominated collective will make their way across the United States, headlining shows in cities like San Diego, CA and Fort Collins, CO, and playing at festivals such as Trinidaddio Blues Fest, The White Mountain Boogie N' Blues Festival and Vail Hot Summer Nights.


Often called the "Jimi Hendrix of the pedal steel guitar," and named one of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time by Rolling Stone's David Fricke, Randolph has, since the turn of the century, revolutionized the role of his chosen instrument. One listen to Got Soul - the fifth studio release from the band - reaffirms that they have truly evolved into one of the most exciting, innovative outfits in contemporary music.


Following its release, Got Soul was nominated for the Grammy's Best Contemporary Blues Album, making it Randolph's fifth nod. The songwriter previously earned nominations for Best R&B Performance By A Duo/Vocal Group ("Higher Ground") and Best Traditional R&B Vocal Performance ("You Are So Beautiful") in 2009 and 2006 respectively, and two 2003 nominations for Best Rock Instrumental Performance ("Squeeze") and Best Rock Gospel Album (Unclassified).
