Ringo Starr To Tour US This Fall With His All-Starr Band

Ringo Starr and his All-Starr Band have confirmed a fall tour of the US.

Set to kick off on September 10th in Chicago, the run will close with a six-date residency at Las Vegas casino and music venue The Venetian. It also features a stop at Louisville, Kentucky festival Bourbon & Beyond on September 13th, where the group will play on a lineup that also features Phish, Noah Kahan, Sturgill Simpson, The Lumineers, Alabama Shakes and Jack White.

The All-Starr Band’s September run will follow another series of dates set for this June. The spring tour will see the band stop in Chicago, Philadelphia and New York’s Radio City Music Hall. It will close out at Ovens Auditorium in Charlotte, North Carolina on June 25th. Both runs feature the same core lineup: Starr, Toto’s Steve Lukather and Warren Ham, Men At Work’s Colin Hay, Average White Band’s Hamish Stuart, Aerosmith’s Buck Johnson and Gregg Bissonette.

First established in 1989, the All-Starr band has featured a regularly rotating lineup that has at times included Peter Frampton, Levon Helm, Nils Lofgren, Clarence Clemons, Sheila E. and Zak Starkey. Longtime Billy Joel collaborator Mark Rivera has served as the group’s musical director since 1995. The group’s last tour took place in spring 2023—they had also planned tours in 2020 and 2021, but both were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The tour announcement follows a busy year already for The Beatles alum—on January 10th, he released his first-ever country album, Look Up, a collaboration with veteran songwriter T-Bone Burnett. Later, in March, he organized a stacked fundraising cover of “With A Little Help From My Friends” and donated all the proceeds to those impacted by the California wildfires. Recorded at Nashville’s famed Ryman Auditorium, the cover gathered the likes of Sheryl Crow, Emmylou Harris, Mickey Guyton, Molly Tuttle, and Billy Strings.
