Alison Krauss and Robert Plant Raise The Roof 2024 Tour Dates below.

Robert Plant and Alison Krauss aren’t ready to stop singing together just yet. “We’ve been doing this on and off since 2007,” says Krauss, “and it’s just gotten better every time we’ve gotten together.”  behind their second   album, 2021’s Raise the Roof, they’re adding 28 more tour dates this year, beginning in June.

Krauss and Plant jumped on a Zoom with Rolling Stone for their only interview about the new tour, explaining why they just can’t quit each other, discussing future plans, breaking down their set list, and much more.

Rolling Stone: Robert, you sang “Stairway to Heaven” for the first time in many years at a charity event last year. What did that feel like?
Plant: It was cathartic. People go, “Oh, that’s good. He never was going to do that.” But I didn’t really do it! I just blurted it out. ‘Cause it’s such an important song to me for where I was at the time and where I was with Jimmy and with John and Bonzo. So on that night, it was what it was. It was a trial by fire, but I felt better at the end than at the beginning.

I was thinking it could be the last time you ever sing that song. Would you be OK with that?
Plant: Yeah, I think you’re probably right. I haven’t got around to doing the ice-skating rinks in Finland yet with a small orchestra [laughs]. So I don’t think I’ll be doing that, but I don’t know. Who knows? Something could change somewhere. Spirit and heart could come back in the soul. It’s a long song. Who can remember all those words?

 

Robert Plant: Well, we’ve been growing from the nervous formality of the very initial kicking it off after so many years of being apart and not really being sure, or even imagining that we would ever get back together.

If you go back to all that time ago, in the beginning of the Raise the Roof recordings, the idea of taking it beyond there was it was very tentative, really, but nerve-wracking.

And if I don’t know if you think this, Alison, but when we doing some TV clips [early on] with Duane Eddy and James Burton and stuff, how are we to know from that kind of formal delivery, very neatly done, that we would end up as a particularly far-out, loose band, quite funky and extending all our songs? I think that’s the thing. We just grew more and more into a new place, and that’s what gave us the impetus to try this again.

Alison Krauss: It’s felt great. I’m really glad that we’ve been able to revisit this as many times as we have. The band has more room, and I get a little more consistency with what’s happening when it’s time for me to jump in and sing harmony. And I thought, “Oh, it’ll be too long in between…” But it’s amazing how quickly the months go by before we go out again. I’m really looking forward to doing it again.

Plant: I’ve got a Tascam digital recorder, and I sing, and I put the vocals through a guitar pedal, and then I record them on that over there, and it sounds great. Why bother to go to the studio? But I can’t find words. This is a very difficult time to try and wax lyrical out there.

Robert Plant Birthady: "I'm Now the Old Guy from the Cover of Led Zeppelin IV

Robert Plant was a spry 23-year-old when Led Zeppelin released Led Zeppelin IV. Now, at age 75, the rock legend aligns himself more with the old crooked man carrying a burden on the cover artwork of the LP.

Plant remembered moving to the Bron-Yr-Aur cottage in Snowdonia, Wales to write in an isolated and tranquil environment. The band returned to the cottage when writing new material for the fourth studio album.

“It was fine; it was really good. It was a beautiful place, and all those things were part of the bargain,” Plant explained, referring to the cottage’s lack of electricity and running water. “You’re there for a reason, and you’re just in it, so all that actually adds to it — the idea of going outside and bringing in kindling.”

“In fact, the old guy with the sticks on his back on Zeppelin IV — I’m now that guy!” Plant said jovially. “I pick up kindling everywhere I go and wrap it around with a piece of baling twine and shunt it on my back just in case anyone’s driving by and they go, ‘There’s that bloke from the Led Zeppelin IV album cover!’”

Robert Plant has opened up about Led Zeppelin‘s reputation for rock ‘n’ roll excess.

"Blues helps start the day. The song that I listen every morning"

When asked about the group’s reputation for “unbridled rock’n’roll hedonism”, he told Lauren Laverne: “The whole deal was sometimes very tough to be a part of. I think the intensity of what we were experiencing and the lack of structure was very difficult. We were flexing one way or the other and I found a lot of it quite toug

LED Zeppelin's frontman Robert Plant has reflected on his friendship with bandmate John Bonham appearing on BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs, Plant said: "He was big, he had this way about him and he said 'look you're going somewhere really special, but you will never get there without me' and he was right."

"I knew when Led Zeppelin began, John Bonham and I were coming from the Black Country. "We were big fish there, but we were suddenly alongside John Paul Jones and Jimmy Page who were really seriously accomplished, far more mature and pretty well versed in all the different elements of melody and construction and stuff like that, so it was kind of daunting in a way." "Although I really wanted to be around excellence, when I came head to head with it I was really kind of intimidated."

In 1980, Bonham died of alcohol poisoning, at the age of 32. Plant said: "I drove down with him on the day of the rehearsal and I drove back without him. "He was an incredible character and so encouraging for me despite the fact he was always taking the mickey out of me and I loved him desperately. "We really were kids and we grew up not having a clue about anything at all, just the two of us, loud, confident and mostly wrong and it was really good.(redditchadvertiser - BBC radio 4 )

 

Robert Plant on Zeppelin: "I can't go out there and fake it"

Jason Bonham Reveals What Robert Plant Told Him When He Asked if Led Zeppelin Was Going to Reunite

Jason Bonham tells Billboard that "Robert's true reason is a lot deeper," but also more clear-cut, than many realize and discussed the idea of a hologram of his father.zeppelin

"We did six weeks' rehearsal for one show, so I was thinking we must be doing more," Bonham says. But after joining Plant for a soccer game in England, the drummer found out that would not be the case.

"On the way back I said [to Plant], 'I’ve got to ask you... are we gonna get the band back together?'" Bonham recalls. "And he said, 'I loved your dad way too much. It's not disrespect to you; You know the stuff better than all of us, and no one else who is alive can play it like you. But it's not the same. I can't go out there and fake it. I can't be a jukebox. I can't go out there and try to do it that way."

"He told me, 'When your father left us, left the world, that was it for Led Zeppelin. We couldn't do what The Who did. It was too vital.'

"And I got it. I was absolutely fine with that. My dad and Robert, they'd known each other since they were, like, 15. It was a lot deeper for [Plant]. So I was OK with it.

"It was a great time, and to end it the way it did, with that great concert, was for the best. [Plant] said, 'We needed to do one more great concert, and then maybe put it to rest.'"
