The 2014 Summer Tour begins at The Riverbend Festival in Chattanooga, TN before heading to the Northeast making stops in Boston on June 13th and Philadelphia on June 14th where Galactic will share the stage performing 60 minute sets to kick off the shows. Galactic will also join the band in Lincoln, NE on June 24th and Kansas City on June 25th.

Summer Tour finishes up with a bang as the band will play three nights at The Red Rocks Amphitheatre followed by three nights at The Joint At Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Vegas. Widespread Panic currently holds the attendance record for most consecutive sold out shows at Red Rocks Amphitheatre with an unprecedented 42. Panic will also take the stage at the beautiful High Sierra Music Festival held annually in Quincy, California on July 6th. See a complete list of tour dates below.
Widespread Panic has just released the 22nd and 23rd installments of their Porch Songs Live Archives Series. The series, beloved by fans, picks up with the band near the tail-end of their 2000 Fall Tour with a two-night run in Memphis, TN at the Mid-South Coliseum. Though the band has since returned to the venue three years running, this live recording marks their first visit. Highlights include sit-ins from the brothers Dickinson, Luther and Cody, with song highlights including “Vacation”, “Sleeping Man” “Let It Rock” and “Aint’ Life Grand” encores.
