Leland Sklar’s 36-Year Journey with Lyle Lovett’s Large Band Continues – 2025 Tour Announced

Lyle Lovett has unveiled a slew of dates to his extensive 2025 tour. The legendary singer, who is currently on the road with his Acoustic Group, will take his Large Band out on the road for a summer run across the U.S.
Both the Acoustic Group and the Large Band are anchored by bass heavyweight Leland Sklar. The session ace has been working with Lovett for decades, back to the original Large Band album in 1989.
