T Bone Burnett planning 2 Phoenix concerts

Grammy, Oscar winner will visit Musical Instrument Museum

Grammy- and Oscar-winner T Bone Burnett will bring his first U.S. tour since 2006 to Phoenix.

Burnett will perform two shows – Saturday, Nov. 9 and Sunday, Nov. 10 – at Musical Instrument Museum, at 4725 E. Mayo Blvd., in Phoenix.

The performances will feature songs from Burnett’s acclaimed new album, “The Other Side,” as well as selections spanning his 50-plus year career.

He will be joined on all dates by bandmates and longtime associates Dennis Crouch on bass, Colin Liden (who co-produced “The Other Side”) on guitars, and David Mansfield on fiddle and mandolin.

Tickets available at https://mim.org/concerts/upcoming-concerts/.

Burnett’s tour follows sold-out shows in Nashville in May at the Franklin Theatre, The Blue Room at Third Man Records, and Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum’s CMA Theatre.

On his new album Burnett delves into the genres of American Music, returning to his roots as a singer and songwriter. The album features longtime friends Rosanne Cash and early bandmate Steven Soles, newer artists Lucius and Weyes Blood, and including Dennis Crouch, Stuart Duncan, Jay Bellerose, and Rory Hoffman.

“I view the purpose of art as creating conscience, so I was constantly appealing to people's consciences,” Burnett in a press release says of a solo career that stretches back to the mid-’70s, “but I realized when a songwriter uses the word ‘you,’ he is, of course, in the world of conscience, but he’s also in the world of people's dreams. And when you enter into people's dreams, you have to be very careful with them.”
