Johnny Blue Skies on THE ROAD AGAIN. Today, Sturgill Simpson announced an extensive headlining tour called the Who The F*** Is Johnny Blue Skies? tour, which will kick off in March and run through May. He has several other headlining festival dates on his schedule vs well, but Miles Miller, Sturgill’s drummer, shared the news in a post on Instagram which will certainly have fans VERY excited, because he’s hitting tons of cities and is crisscrossing all over the country, along with a few international stops. Stu released his Passage du Desir album as his alter ego Johnny Blue Skies in 2024, and embarked on his Why Not? Tour last fall as well. It’s exciting to see him back out there, playing music and giving the fans the top-notch show they’ve come to love and expect from him… there’s no opener, either, and on the announcement graphic, there’s an important message: “No openers. If you’re on time, you’re late.” Don’t say he didn’t warn you… Tickets for the newly-announced dates go on-sale on next Friday, February 21st.
