November 15, 2024—Acclaimed American rock band Blackberry Smoke has released their first-ever holiday song, “Come Go with Us,” available now via 3 Legged Records. Listen/share HERE.
Of the track, lead singer and songwriter Charlie Starr shares, “‘Come Go With Us’ is a childhood’s worth of conversations that I overheard at family holiday gatherings. The kinda stuff that attaches itself to you and never turns loose. Covered dishes and snuff-dipping kinda talk. I miss it a lot.”
Earlier this fall, the band announced their extensive “Rattle, Ramble and Roll Tour.” Kicking off in 2025, the tour features stops at Worcester’s Palladium, Burlington’s The Flynn, New Orleans’ The Fillmore, Austin’s ACL Live at the Moody Theater, Houston’s 713 Music Hall, Maryville, TN’s The Shed (three nights) and Dallas’ Majestic Theatre among many others. See below for the complete tour itinerary. Full ticket details can be found at www.blackberrysmoke.com/tour.
Throughout their prolific career, Blackberry Smoke has released eight studio albums including their latest, Be Right Here. Produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell), the record was released to widespread critical acclaim earlier this year and debuted at #1 on the Current Country Albums chart, Americana/Folk Albums chart and Current Rock Albums chart. Of the record, Premier Guitar praised, “Blackberry Smoke is what happens when real musicians tell authentic stories through great songs,” while Forbes declared, “a unique blend of hard rock, southern rock, country, blues, and masterful songwriting” and Relix proclaimed, “Be Right Here is what Blackberry Smoke has been heading toward all along.”
Since forming in 2001, Blackberry Smoke has continued to tour relentlessly, building a strong and loyal community of fans. In addition to their work as musicians, the band is deeply committed to charitable work and formed the Brit Turner Family Fund, a non-profit supporting several national foundations committed to curing children’s cancer. With these efforts, the band has raised over $1,000,000 to date benefitting children’s cancer research. Most recently, Blackberry Smoke raised over $26,000 with their hometown show at Atlanta’s Cadence Bank Amphitheatre at Chastain Park earlier this summer, which celebrated the life and legacy of the band’s late drummer, Brit Turner.
