THIS JUST IN: TOM PETTY AND THE HEARTBREAKERS–who are currently in the midst of their “Echo” summer tour–have announced more dates taking them into the fall. The band have been garnering lots of acclaim for their live show, such as the Boston Globe which wrote: “…a shimmering set from Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, who played like an unstoppable, joyously coordinated team. Petty and company were as hot as the rajah-like red draperies and incense burners that lent a fiery flavor to the evening right away.” And as concluded by the Washington Post: “Kicking off with `Jammin’ Me,’ (TOM PETTY‘s) smoldering collaboration with Bob Dylan, and the twangy-guitar driven `Runnin’ Down A Dream,’ Petty moved easily between forceful roots rockers and emotionally scarred confessionals…Another new song, the Dylanesque `Swingin’ (the band’s current single and video),’ used an insistent sway to champion independent spirits resisting seemingly settled fates–Petty updating his own `I Won’t Back Down.'” Check out TOM PETTY AND THE HEARTBREAKERS at the following stops:
