Following the departure of longtime member Adam MacDougall, Chris Robinson Brotherhood has announced two new keyboardists for their forthcoming Servants of the Sun tour.
Pete Sears will join The CRB for all of the band’s May shows, including dates in the Southeast, as well as Dark Star Jubilee and Summer Camp Music Festival. Joel Robinow will then swap in for Sears, coming aboard for late June performances and a July tour across Europe.
Sears’ history stretches across six decades, having been a member of bands with Rod Stewart, Hot Tuna, and Jefferson Starship among others. The multi-instrumentalist also plays bass in Robinson’s cosmic-country revival band, Green Leaf Rustlers. Robinow is the founding member of acclaimed indie prog ensemble Once & Future Band, who Robinson has frequently praised as one of his favorite modern artists. The CRB’s Servants Of The Sun tour marks the band’s final scheduled shows of 2019.
Despite the lineup changes and an indefinite hiatus following the band’s scheduled summer tour dates, Chris Robinson Brotherhood is gearing up to release their new studio album, Servants of the Sun, due out on June 14th via Silver Arrow Records. Servants of the Sun marks The CRB’s sixth full-length album since forming in 2011. Fans can head here to pre-order a copy of Chris Robinson Brotherhood’s Servants of the Sun.
