Ry Cooder, Ricky Skaggs and Sharon White Team Up for Spring Tour
Ry Cooder, Ricky Skaggs and Sharon White are hitting the road together once again this spring. The trio will embark on their Songs for the Good People Tour beginning at the end of March.
Cooder, Skaggs and White's trek will begin in Savannah, Ga., on March 30, then venture to Florida, Tennessee, Virginia, Delaware and Ontario, Canada, before wrapping up in New York on April 17. They have a total of 14 shows scheduled; a complete list is below.
The trio teamed up to tour together for the first time last year. Skaggs and White have been married for 33 years and have played together since White’s time as part of the family vocal group the Whites. Skaggs and Cooder have also known each other for many years. All three artists are vocal about their admiration for each other: Skaggs calls Cooder "a world-class musician," while White calls him "truly a 'one-of-a-kind' musician."
