Gov’t Mule Announces New Year’s Run

Acclaimed Grammy-nominated band Gov’t Mule, led by guitar legend, vocalist, songwriter and producer Warren Haynes, has announced the details for their annual New Year’s Run, the quartet’s venerable commitment of bringing together the Mule community to ring in the new year since 2002. The three-night stand – Celebrating 30 years of The Mule – will kick off Saturday, December 28th at College Street Music Hall in New Haven, CT and then return to the Beacon Theatre in New York City, the longstanding home of their New Year’s shows, for back-to-back nights Monday, December 30th and Tuesday, December 31st. These special year-end shows will mark the first Gov’t Mule headlining shows since their February “30 Years Strong Tour” and continue the celebrations for this major milestone as they honor the band’s past, present and future.

“It’s hard to believe it’s been 30 years,” shares Haynes. “It’s also hard to believe we’ve been celebrating New Year’s together for over 20 years. These are always such special shows for us. I’m looking forward to being with the band revisiting some of the stuff we haven’t played in a long, long time and, of course, being with our incredible fans.”
