A tongue-in-cheek title referencing <em>The Last Record<\/em> album, Little Feat, will soon start the process of retiring from Little Feat touring with a series of dates that start in April.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets are on sale now.<\/p>\n<p>Little Feat also released a new single, \u201cFeathers And A Smile,\u201d a previously unreleased song written by band co-founder Lowell George from an unreleased portion of \u201cCrazy Captain Gunboat Willie Suite\u201d from the band\u2019s debut. It features Little Feat\u2019s Bill Payne on piano and vocals, Scott Sharrad on Dobro, Fred Tackett on mandolin, alongside vocals from Lowell George\u2019s daughter Inara George.<\/p>\n<p>Rock legends Little Feat may be putting the tour bus to rest, but they remain in fine creative form. Fresh off a Grammy nomination for their recent album <em>Sam\u2019s Place<\/em> and the release of their powerful new record <em>Strike Up the Band<\/em>, the band continues to prove why they\u2019re one of rock\u2019s most endearing, enduring, and inventive creative forces. Produced by Vance Powell (Chris Stapleton, Jack White) and featuring contributions from Blackberry Smoke\u2019s Charlie Starr and Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter, Strike Up the Band is a vibrant showcase of their sonic gumbo, a slinky mix of groove, grit, and far-out lyricism.<\/p>\n<p>Formed in the late \u201960s, Little Feat built a cult following with their genre-blending stew of New Orleans R&amp;B, country, rock, funk, and jazz\u2014earning admiration from The Rolling Stones to Bonnie Raitt, to Cher to Led Zeppelin. Through lineup changes and decades of evolution, Little Feat remains an unstoppable force. The current lineup\u2014featuring founder Bill Payne alongside Fred Tackett, Kenny Gradney, Sam Clayton, Scott Sharrard, and Tony Leone\u2014sounds revitalized, reminding fans that Little Feat isn\u2019t a relic of rock history but a living, breathing, ever-evolving band still capable of striking up something extraordinary.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Little Feat 2026 The Last Farewell Tour Dates:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Jan 11-18 \u2013 Fort Lauderdale, FL @ Sandy Beaches Cruise 2026<br \/>Jan 18-25 \u2013 Fort Lauderdale, FL @ The Big Easy Cruise 2026<br \/>Apr 10 \u2013 Orlando, FL @ The Plaza Live<br \/>Apr 11 \u2013 Miramar Beach, FL @ Joe Bonamassa\u2019s Sound Wave Beach Weekend 2026<br \/>Apr 13 \u2013 Knoxville, TN @ Tennessee Theatre<br \/>Apr 14 \u2013 Roanoke, VA @ Jefferson Center<br \/>Apr 16 \u2013 Chattanooga, TN @ Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Auditorium<br \/>Apr 17 \u2013 Montgomery, AL @ Montgomery Performing Arts Center<br \/>Apr 19 \u2013 Dallas, TX @ Majestic Theatre<br \/>Apr 20 \u2013 Austin, TX @ Paramount Theatre<br \/>May 3 \u2013 Houston, TX @ 713 Music Hall<br \/>May 5 \u2013 Eureka Springs, AR @ City Auditorium<br \/>May 6 \u2013 Kansas City, MO @ Uptown Theater<br \/>May 8 \u2013 Iowa City, IA @ Englert Theatre<br \/>May 9 \u2013 St. Charles, IL @ Arcada Theatre<br \/>May 24 \u2013 Thornville, OH @ Dark Star Jubilee<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source themusicuniverse.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The run kicks off in April 2026 Little Feat will embark on The Last Farewell Tour in 2026.
