Four-time Grammy winners and Rock & Roll Hall of Famers the Doobie Brothers will bring their 38-date 2024 Tour to Footprint Center in downtown Phoenix on Wednesday, June 26, with fellow Grammy winner Robert Cray.

The 2024 Tour follows the Doobie Brothers 50th Anniversary Tour, which had Tom Johnston, Michael McDonald, Pat Simmons, and John McFee back on the road together for the first time in more than 25 years.

Selling nearly 50 million albums worldwide, the Doobie Brothers have had five Top 10 singles, 16 Top 40 hits, three multi-platinum albums, seven platinum albums, 14 gold albums and a rare diamond record for their 1976 album, “Best of the Doobies.”

In 2023, the Doobie Brothers eleased a new single, “Lahaina”,  their first release since their 2021 album “Liberté.” The song, which also featured Mick Fleetwood, Jake Shimabukuro, and Henry Kapono, was in support of those affected by the devastating fires in Maui last year.

Along with this new music, The Doobie Brothers’ collection of timeless hits will once again be played by the artists who wrote them, providing fans the rare opportunity to see these Rock and Roll legends performing their full catalog of songs on stage.

The tour will launch at the White River Amphitheatre in Seattle on June 15, 2024, including dates in major markets like Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, and New York City’s Madison Square Garden before wrapping at the USANA Amphitheater in Salt Lake City on August 30, 2024.

A Blues Hall of Fame inductee, Robert Cray and his band have been touring worldwide since 1974.
