This Friday, January 30th, Haynes is releasing a remixed and remastered version of his 1993 debut solo studio album, Tales of Ordinary Madness, via Megaforce Records. The expanded 12-track album, produced by Chuck Leavell and co-produced by Haynes, includes the previously released singles “Fire In the Kitchen” and “I’ll Be The One.”

In support of the new release, Haynes will embark on his Winter of Warren 2026 Tour. The outing begins with a rare, intimate solo tour from February 12-26 – featuring stripped-down sets exploring music from throughout his entire catalog as well as songs that have inspired and influenced his career – and then the Warren Haynes Band will head out for a run of headlining dates from March 1-7.

Following their spring tour, which kicks off March 27th in Denver and includes a stop in Charleston on April 10th, Gov’t Mule is teaming up with longtime friend and blues-rock titan Joe Bonamassa for an 8-show run of co-headlining dates this summer from July 29th through August 16th.

The renowned quartet released their 12th studio album, Peace…Like A River (Fantasy Records), in 2023 to high praise. The 12-song rock collection is highlighted by the singles “Dreaming Out Loud” featuring Ivan Neville and Ruthie Foster, “Same As It Ever Was” and “Made My Peace” as well as additional guest appearances from Billy F Gibbons, Billy Bob Thornton, and Celisse.
