The Byrds

Roger McGuinn and Chris Hillman, co-founders of Country Rock group The Byrds, are set to hit the road to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the group's "Sweetheart Of The Rodeo" album. The group will perform the project in its entirety and tell the stories behind the songs, making stops in Los Angeles, Nashville, Boston, New York City, and more U.S. cities. Joining the tour are Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives.

"On March 9th, 1968, Roger McGuinn and I, along with many fantastic musicians, began recording the 'Sweetheart Of The Rodeo' album at Columbia Studios in Nashville," shared Hillman. "It was truly a pivotal moment in our lives, taking a turn toward the music we always felt a strong kinship with. We are honored that it has left a strong, long lasting impression on Country and Rock music. To celebrate this special time with Roger, Marty Stuart, and His Fabulous Superlatives is such a blessing on this, the 50th anniversary of 'Sweetheart Of The Rodeo.'"
