Steely Dan Announce Full Album Shows For New York City Residency
Steely Dan have announced a run of full album shows during their newly-announced fall New York City residency at the Beacon Theatre in the fall. The nine-date October run is set to include concerts dedicated to 1973’s Countdown to Ecstasy, 1976’s The Royal Scam, 1977’s Aja, 1980’s Gaucho and frontman Donald Fagen’s 1982 solo LP, The Nightfly, along with a greatest hits set and another based on fan voting.
American Express card members can access a pre-sale from Tuesday, 27 March at 10 am Eastern Time through to Thursday, 29 March at 10 pm ET. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, 30 March 30 at 10 am ET.
In addition to the full album New York shows, Steely Dan announced five further dates for Richmond, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, New York, Baltimore and Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Donald Fagen’s live band will feature guitarist Jon Herington, drummer Keith Carlock, bassist Freddie Washington, keyboardist Jim Beard, three backing vocalists and a four-piece horn section.
The Beacon Theatre residency will follow Steely Dan’s recently announced a co-headlining North American tour with The Doobie Brothers. That 37-date run – Steely Dan’s first since the September 2017 death of co-founder and guitarist-bassist Walter Becker – launches on 10 May in Charlotte, North Carolina and wraps up on 14 July in Bethel, New York.
