Gov’t Mule is hitting the road this spring for a headlining tour, and they’ve just added 11 new dates. The quartet, led by Warren Haynes and glued together by bass great Kevin Scott, will be covering the Midwest and Southeast throughout April.

The new performances begin April 14th in Kansas City, Missouri. From there, they’ll head east to Farmington, Pennsylvania before dropping into North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, and Arkansas. The new leg follows a previously announced run that will include shows at Joe Bonamassa’s Sound Wave Beach Weekend and Gasparilla Music Festival.

Scott joined The Mule in 2023, bringing his incredible energy to the mix. Watch him go whole hog in this clip of the guitar solo on “Game Face”:

    IMO Kevin channels Woody; more so than the previous bassists.
