Performing with Sara Watkins.

The group is promoting its latest album, Laws Of Gravity, which has soared to the top of bluegrass charts in North America. The group also just released Laws Of Gravity: LIVE!, a live recording of its new sets

The Stringdusters’ banjo player Chris Pandolfi said the new albums always affect the live show. “As Laws Of Gravity was about to drop, we were adapting all the songs for the show, trying different arrangements and seeing which ones would lend themselves to extended improvisation, transitions, teases, etc. Unlike some previous albums, all the songs have found a meaningful place in the live repertoire, evolving significantly from their original iterations on the album.”

East Coast fans can catch the Stringdusters today at Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival in Oak Hill, N.Y. Other festivals are booked through the festival, including Jeezum Crow in Jay, Vt.; Philadelphia Folk; Bohemian Nights at New West Fest in Fort Collins, Colo.; and the Strawberry Music Festival in Tuolumne, Calif.

Between the festivals are some headline dates, including a gig at Ryman Auditorium in Nashville July 20. The full headline tour gets under way in the fall, starting with Old Rock House in St. Louis Oct. 14. That run continues until Dec. 16 at Music Farm Charleston in South Carolina.

Other acts joining the Stringdusters on the tour include Dangermuffin, Midnight North, and Ryan Young & Erik Berry of Music Farm Charleston.

A presale for select headline dates is on now and the general onsale is tomorrow, July 14.
