‘Just Like That … ’ Bonnie Raitt adds West Palm stop to tour; tickets go on sale Friday

Grammy Award winner and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Bonnie Raitt is coming to West Palm Beach for a single performance on Nov. 25 at the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts.

In a release Tuesday, the Kravis said the local stop is part of Raitt's extended U.S. tour.

"Raitt is extending the ‘Just Like That … ’ tour adding another 30-plus dates in the U.S. to the already robust schedule planned for the first half of 2024," the center said. Raitt and her longtime touring band will headline concerts starting in Arizona and Southern California, traveling up the West Coast and finishing up in the Pacific Northwest throughout September and October before heading to the Southeast and Florida in November to wind up the year. She will be joined by special guest James Hunter.

Raitt headlined 75 concerts in 2022 and another 50 in 2023 spanning the U.S., Australia, the United Kingdom, Scotland, Ireland and Canada, in addition to winning three Grammys at the 65th annual ceremony in 2023 and an Americana Music Award in September (making “Just Like That” the first composition to win Song of the Year at both ceremonies).

Raitt’s fourth headlining appearance on the award-winning and longest-running music program in television history, "Austin City Limits," will debut on PBS and PBS.com on Feb 24 during ACL’s 49th season. Special guest Sunny War joins Raitt for a performance in the episode.

Known for her lifelong commitment to social activism as she is for her music, Raitt has long been involved with the environmental movement, performing concerts around oil, nuclear power, mining, water and forest protection since the mid-1970s. She was a founding member of MUSE (Musicians United for Safe Energy) which produced the historic concerts, album and movie "NO NUKES" and continues to work on safe energy issues in addition to environmental protection, social justice and human rights, as well as creator’s rights and music education.

Performing with his band, Hunter is known for delivering electrifying live performances with his authentic brand of rhythm and blues. He will be supporting Raitt on the entire fall tour. About opening for Raitt, Hunter says, "We're very much looking forward to kicking off the night for the great Bonnie Raitt, so bring your dancing shoes and we'll get you warmed up for a memorable evening of live music."
