The 86-year-old Buddy Guy is celebrating his seventh No. 1 album The Blues Don’t Lie, released via Silvertone/RCA Records.  Along with it, he bids adieu to extensive touring, with the upcoming 2023 Damn Right Farewell Tour.

Guy’s Damn Right Farewell Tour will see the Americana Music Association Lifetime Achievement Award winner performing hits from throughout his career, in addition to his new album.  Amid his core classics you’ll hear new fan favorites from the project, including “Gunsmoke Blues” ft. Jason Isbell, the forever timely and spellbinding “We Go Back” with Mavis Staples, and a harmonious collaboration with James Taylor on “Follow the Money.”

The recipient of the 2015 Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, Buddy Guy’s career spans over 50 years with just as many albums released. Career highlights include 8 Grammy Awards, 38 Blues Music Awards, the most any artist has had, a Kennedy Center Honors, NARM Chairman’s Award for Sustained Creative Achievement, Billboard Music Awards’ Century Award for distinguished artistic development, Presidential National Medal of Arts, and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
