From No Depression:

First U.S. Plant/Krauss tour dates revealed

They’re going to be gone, gone, gone, for a good while it appears. Robert Plant and Alison Krauss are taking their already decorated Raising Sand collaboration on the road beginning April 20 with a handful of dates in the mid-South.

Producer T Bone Burnett is set to lead their band, which is to include guitarist Buddy Miller. The balance of the band has not been announced. Sets will include material from their sole album together, and from their respective careers. CMT is airing a preview of sorts on February 11as part of their “Crossroads” series.

Meanwhile, tickets go on sale January 25 for the four U.S. dates below. It is followed by an 11-date tour of Europe (no specifics yet), with further U.S. dates to be announced for June and July.

The tour begins here:

April 20 (Sunday) Louisville, KY (Palace Theatre)
April 22 (Tuesday) Knoxville, TN (Knoxville Civic Coliseum)
April 23 (Wednesday) Chattanooga, TN (Memorial Auditorium)
April 26 (Saturday) Birmingham, AL (BJCC Arena)
