“Not Feeling Well,” Willie Nelson Will Miss Three Outlaw Music Festival Dates; Lukas Nelson to Fill In

- “He is expected to make a quick recovery,” festival organizers say

Under “doctor’s orders” to rest, Willie Nelson will miss the first three dates of his Outlaw Music Festival, event organizers said.

“We regret to inform you that Willie Nelson is not feeling well and, per doctor’s orders, has been advised to rest for the next four days,” they said in a statement. “He is expected to make a quick recovery and join the Outlaw Music Festival tour next week.”

The announcement came hours before the tour kicks off June 21 in Georgia. Willie’s son Lukas Nelson will instead play with Dad’s Family Band “along with a few guests;” Bob Dylan, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss and Celisse will perform as scheduled.

Nelson will also miss shows scheduled for June 22 and 23 in North Carolina. He could return as early as June 26 in Virginia.

Headlined by Nelson, the Outlaw Music Festival is scheduled to run through Sept. 20, with different lineups on various legs.

No one knows this more than me.

Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real Cut Loose at Webster Hall on Saturday Night

Lukas Nelson – Webster Hall – November 18, 2023

It’s been a few years since Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real last visited Webster Hall and what feels like a lifetime of world tumult, happenings and music that’s passed since then. That the songs from the band’s crisp 2023 release, Sticks & Stones, sound like people eager to break out and boogie is probably not an accident, but then Nelson and his snappy country-rock squad have always walked the line between wistful-moving and barroom-blastoff — better than most. They’re love-me-tender when they want to be, with a joyful, almost goofy earnestness. They can deliver sad songs that hit the feels. And they can rock your face off. 

There’s a lot of Nelson’s dad, Willie, and a lot of occasional employer Neil Young, and a little of other obvious touchstones like Tom Petty in what they do, but these days POTR sound most like one of the best live bands of the past decade, never leaving behind their party-hardy roots, keeping the rock part of folk-rock firmly in mind, writing better and better songs that adequately pace a lip smackingly fun show. On Saturday they once again got after it, nailing the newer tunes and finding new excitement in the old ones. Opener “Entirely Different Stars” began mysterious, got to a crowd-stoking boogie and ended with a psychedelic guitar breakdown. “Sticks and Stones” had double-barreled piano and plenty of saloon in it to push the song forward. Nelson was rocking so hard during the fist-pumping “Four Letter Word” that his signature hat flew off. The early POTR favorite “All the Pretty Horses” underscored just how far the band’s come in their command of their own dynamics, starting quietly solo, patiently building to a full-band sound that filled up the room.

Those were just part of the action. The tunes that at this point might be called the POTR classics — including stinging-sweet “Forget About Georgia,” groovy “Find Yourself,” country-gospel “Set Me Down on a Cloud” — all delivered, as they always do. But the band went deeper still, especially Nelson himself, who delivered a good chunk of the set solo, near-solo and acoustic, either guitar or piano, and left the room spellbound with the sentimental “Smile,” the proud “Just Outside of Austin” and the achingly beautiful parent-to-child-benediction “Giving You Away,” shimmering with steel from multi-instrumentalist Logan Metz. There were surprises, too: The brilliant NYC-based soulful R&B singer Emily King joined Nelson to duet on what was described as a new song, loaded with New York-centric lyrics.  As ever Nelson and the POTR band — Metz, Corey McCormick, Anthony LoGerfo, Tato Melgar, aces, all — brought things to a blowout finale, barreling through the hilarious “Wrong House,” a nifty segue from their own galloping “Ladder of Love” into Willie’s “Bloody Mary Morning” and then “Find Yourself” to close the set. It was as full and varied a show as POTR have ever played here. We wrote of this same band at this same venue in 2019 that they’d “earned their swagger.” In 2023, they totally own it. —Chad Berndtson | @Cberndtson

Song Review: Steve Earle - “Yer So Bad”

Steve Earle didn’t completely erase Tom Petty’s sonic fingerprints from his cover of “Yer So Bad.” Yet, Earle’s contribution to Petty Country: A Country Music Celebration of Tom Petty, totally sounds like a Steve Earle song.

That’s because of Earle’s growl, prominent mandolin and spiraling steel. But Petty’s still in there via the lyrics, Earle’s vocal homage on the choruses and the cover’s rock ‘n’ roll rhythm section.

Petty’s associates couldn’t have asked for a more loving interpretation. And Earle fans will embrace this new Earle track as well.

Coming June 21, Petty Country’s 20 selections include songs from Chris Stapleton; Dolly Parton; Willie and Lukas Nelson; Margo Price featuring Mike Campbell; Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives; and Rhiannon Giddens featuring Silkroad Ensemble and Benmont Tench among others.
