ZZ Top frontman Billy Gibbons has announced new North American tour dates for early 2026 as part of his ongoing solo project, Billy F Gibbons and the BFG Band.
With Billy on guitar and vocals, the group also includes fellow Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Chris “Whipper” Layton on drums and Austin legend Mike “The Drifter” Flanigin on Hammond organ, bass and backing vocals.
The tour kicks off on January 20th at the Uptown Theatre in Napa, California, followed by a string of California dates with appearances thereafter in Santa Fe and Denver. The 27-show trek also includes a two-night stand at the City Winery in New York City.
“I’m joined with Whipper and The Drifter, in our collective Texas collective blues tradition,” Gibbons says. “There’s a bond that speaks volumes about our sonic skew,” adding, “one might hear a surf tune or some other detour of loudness as what we do is looser than our collective background might suggest. We predict good times as we always say, ‘Ya’ can’t lose with the blues.'”
