Jackson Browne At Embassy TheatreNov. 17, 7:30 p.m.

Singer-songwriter Jackson Browne adds November U.S. shows to his 2015 tour in support of his album, Standing In The Breach. He will perform at the Embassy Theatre on Nov. 17 with special guests Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams. Tickets go on sale June 26, 10 a.m., at ticketmaster.com, charge-by-phone 800.745.3000 or buy in person at the Embassy box office. Tickets are $100, $86, $63, $53 and $43.

This September through November, joining Jackson on the road with his longtime band-mates Bob Glaub (bass), Mauricio Lewak (drums), Jeff Young (Hammond Organ, piano), Chavonne Stewart & Alethea Mills (harmony vocals) and Greg Leisz (guitar, lap steel, pedal steel) are
multi-instrumentalist-vocalist Larry Campbell and singer-guitarist Teresa Williams. Currently on tour in support of their own eponymous debut album, produced by Campbell, their music distills everything into a potent, infectious blend of Americana style and timeless soul, offered with a relaxed generosity that can only come from rich experience.

³I¹m thrilled to be touring with Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams,² said Jackson Browne. ³We played together at Levon Helm¹s Midnight Ramble a few years ago and I¹ve been waiting for the chance to play with them again ever since. Larry has played in some of my all-time favorite bands and I¹m excited to hear what he brings to my songs as this tour unfolds. Teresa and I have a great vocal blend, as does she and Larry and I¹m looking forward to what happens when we introduce these longtime favorites of mine into my body of songs.²

Standing In The Breach, Jackson Browne’s new studio album, is a collection of 10 songs, at turns deeply personal and political, exploring love, hope and defiance in the face of the advancing uncertainties of modern life.
