Last night, GRAMMY Award-winning artist Lukas Nelson was joined by his brother, Micah Nelson (Particle Kid), on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” performing a rendition of their father’s classic, “Bloody Mary Morning,” in celebration of his 90th birthday tomorrow. Watch/share HERE. Nelson and his brother will also perform this weekend at The Hollywood Bowl as part of “Long Story Short: Willie Nelson 90, A Star-Studded Concert Celebrating Willie’s 90th Birthday.” 

The performances add to yet another landmark year for Nelson, who will release his highly anticipated new album, Sticks and StonesJuly 14 via 6ACE Records/Thirty Tigers (pre-save/pre-order). Ahead of the release, lead single, “More Than Friends,” featuring CMA and ACM Award-winning artist, Lainey Wilson, recently debuted, of which Rolling Stone declares, “It’s a bright, rollicking country-rock anthem,” while The Boot praises, “Backed by richly layered, slow-rolling instrumentation, the instantly infectious and lively collaboration spotlights the strength of both artists’ impeccable vocals.” 

Sticks and Stones was written solely by Nelson with the hope of bringing people together at the forefront of his mind, bringing upbeat energy and a sense of fun. Across the album’s twelve spirited tracks, Nelson explores the universal human experiences of love, celebration, longing and humor. Self-produced by Nelson and his longtime band, POTR, Sticks and Stones captures the band’s musical power and fits perfectly alongside the canon of the electric live performances they’re known for.

Reflecting on the record, Nelson shares, “This album is about celebrating the human connection, joy and excitement. We went from quiet and introspective on A Few Stars Apart to something big and fun to really showcase the band’s talent and performance. You can listen to the album Sticks and Stones from start to finish and get the songs to dance to and then the quiet, poignant songs. To me, this album is the perfect setlist.”

Nelson + POTR will continue to tour through this fall including a nine-show run across the UK and Ireland this summer as well as select dates supporting Tedeschi Trucks Band in September.
