“Well… it’s time to let the music do the talkin’ again,” Perry said in the announcement. “I’m really excited about the JPP line up this year!!!! Most of these guys played with me at The Roxy in L.A. at the debut event for my latest solo album [Sweetzerland Manifesto] in January 2018. They’re all busy as hell but thankfully they’re able to carve out some time for this run.”
Perry said the set lists for the shows will include songs from his own solo albums, as well as songs by Aerosmith, The Black Crows and Stone Temple Pilots.
