In light of the escalating public concern over the spread of COVID-19 in the U.S., Zac Brown Band is delaying its spring dates for “The Owl Tour,” which was set to kick off March 12 at Enterprise Center in St. Louis.

The routing, with Amos Lee and Poo Bear, was mostly in arenas, including T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Little Caesars Arena in Detroit and Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.

The statement from the band promises a new itinerary soon, and says that all tickets held for the postponed shows will be honored at the new dates. For the time being ZBB’s “Roar With The Lions” tour in the summer is still scheduled to go ahead as planned.

“The Owl Tour” was running last year as well, with a Lukas Nelson & Promise Of The Real and Caroline Jones splitting support duties. A highlight on the October 2019 leg was a $1.4 million gross at iTHINK Financial Amphitheater in West Palm Beach, Fla.

ZBB’s decision to cancel the tour followed Pearl Jam’s call to postpone its spring tour on March 9, also due to concerns surrounding COVID-19.
