Robert Plant has officially revealed his upcoming US tour dates, coinciding with the announcement of his brand new album, “Saving Grace.”
Renowned rock legend Robert Plant—best known as the iconic frontman of Led Zeppelin—has once again taken the spotlight, this time with news of a fresh album and an eagerly awaited U.S. tour. Plant’s latest collaboration with the group Saving Grace sees him venturing into acoustic and folk territory, a creative shift that has sparked excitement among fans and critics. The new album, titled “Saving Grace,” is scheduled for release on September 26, 2025, drawing anticipation from listeners who have tracked the project’s evolution since 2019. Plant revealed the news during his appearance at Italy’s Lucca Summer Festival, generating global enthusiasm for his new artistic direction.
“Saving Grace” will showcase a diverse blend of reinterpretations across ten tracks, delving into both traditional folk and modern covers. Plant, joined by Suzi Dian, Oli Jefferson, Tony Kelsey, Matt Worley, and Barney Morse-Brown, set out to capture a broad range of acoustic influences. The album features reimagined classics from blues greats like Memphis Minnie and Blind Willie Johnson, alongside contemporary works from artists such as Low. The standout single, “Everybody’s Song,” offers a glimpse into the album’s distinct style, while covers like Moby Grape’s “It’s a Beautiful Day Today” and Low Anthem’s “Ticket Taker” underscore the band’s wide-reaching inspirations.
A crucial aspect of Saving Grace’s creative process has been the unique synergy among its members. Much of the album’s development unfolded in England’s Cotswolds, a setting Plant credits for nurturing the group’s organic sound and shared enthusiasm. He has often spoken of his admiration for his fellow musicians, calling them “sweet people playing out all the stuff they could never get out before,” which points to a sense of creative freedom and camaraderie within the band. This project follows on the heels of Plant’s acclaimed 2021 album with Alison Krauss, “Raise the Roof,” further cementing his reputation as an ever-evolving artist.
Adding to the excitement, Saving Grace is set to embark on their first North American tour. The U.S. leg kicks off October 30 in Wheeling, West Virginia, and includes stops in major cities like Brooklyn, Seattle, and Los Angeles, wrapping up on November 22. Plant’s return to American stages with Saving Grace is a milestone for the group and offers U.S. fans a rare opportunity to experience Plant’s current musical journey firsthand.
Plant’s recent interviews and public appearances suggest an artist reveling in the joys of performance, unfettered by commercial pressures. He’s made it clear that he prefers to let his music tell his story, eschewing traditional memoirs or biopics. By focusing on creative exploration rather than professional ambition, Plant continues to breathe new life into each project. The Saving Grace era, he says, has reignited his love for live performance and allowed him to step beyond the shadow of his past achievements.
Ultimately, Robert Plant’s partnership with Saving Grace marks another fascinating chapter in his long and storied career—a career defined by reinvention and an aversion to standing still. The album and the tour promise audiences an intimate, engaging experience, blending Plant’s unmistakable style with inventive acoustic arrangements. Longtime admirers and new fans alike will discover something special in “Saving Grace,” a record that embodies the emotional depth and musical curiosity that have always set Plant apart.
