Trombone Shorty to Tour with Hall & Oates

Daryl Hall & John Oates.

Daryl Hall & John Oates.

Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue will open for Hall and Oates when the iconic pop-rock duo embarks on a summer tour. The pair–who are now billing themselves as Daryl Hall & John Oates–will get started in Dallas on May 13 before swinging through much of the country over the course of the following months.

Fans that make it out to the shows will be treated to some top-notch music from start to finish, as Sharon Jones and The Dap-Kings are also slated to play an opening set each night. Unfortunately, no Louisiana stops are currently scheduled for the tour. Tickets will go on sale this Friday, February 12 via LiveNation.

Fictional soft-rock supergroup Blue Jean Committee–featuring Saturday Night Live veterans Fred Armisen and Bill Hader–had the honor of announcing the tour via the video below:
