Sir Robert Plant is no stranger to the SB Bowl and on Sunday, May 31 he will be back when Robert Plant and the Sensational Space Shifters play live with JD McPherson at 7:00 pm. Each ticket for this show will include a CD of the band’s latest album, lullaby and…The Ceaseless Roar.
The tour is in support of Robert Plant’s lullaby and… The Ceaseless Roar, which was released September 2014 on Nonesuch/Warner Bros. Records. The record was named one of the top 50 albums of the year by NPR, which said, “At 66, the singer is still a majestic rock presence, at peace with the legacy of his hard-rock-defining band Led Zeppelin, while remaining relentlessly creative in his solo work. But on his 10th solo album, Plant does pause by those waters to consider the aesthetic, emotional and spiritual currents that have shaped his illustrious life. He finds himself, characteristically, not saddened but renewed… Not one of these songs sounds precisely like its source; that’s the genius of this album. It lovingly layers elements in ways that mirror memory, creating new constructs from floating shards of the musical past.”
Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets from Wednesday, March 18 at 10:00 AM through Thursday, March 19 at 10:00 PM. For more information, please visit citiprivatepass.com
