Playing is the joy and satisfaction of touring, but it comes with the hard part — travel, the endless miles on a bus. There’s no dodging the wear and tear, and Little Feat has been playing for quite a while.
With tongue stuck somewhat in cheek, Little Feat announces “The Last Farewell Tour,” which will begin in April 2026.
It’s definitely not an absolute, never-gonna-play-again statement. This wind-down will take several years to accomplish, and while it does, Feat will continue to perform and record as long as they are able. It’s a retirement from the travel of touring.
Little Feat began in 1969 when Frank Zappa told Lowell George he should start his own band. As Lowell happened to have a pretty small shoe size, the name became obvious. He found a partner and keyboard player in Bill Payne and a drummer in Richie Hayward.
After a few transitions, they added Kenny Gradney on bass, Sam Clayton on percussion, Paul Barrere on guitar, and eventually Fred Tackett on guitar, beginning a now 56-year journey that has produced dozens of songs — including “Dixie Chicken,” “Oh, Atlanta,” “Willin’,” and “Fat Man in the Bathtub” — and a thousand memories.
One result was one of the best live albums in the history of rock ’n’ roll, Waiting for Columbus.
The road — see above! — is hard, and it cost them first Lowell George in 1979, Richie Hayward in 2010, and Paul Barrere in 2019.
The everlasting Little Feat groove demanded playing, and they added Scott Sharrard on guitar and Tony Leone on drums. The band may well be playing at the very height of its powers, recently releasing the well-received album of original material, Strike Up the Band.
Their inimitable blend of rock, New Orleans swamp boogie, jazz, and blues is not only unique, but an ongoing source of delight.
Little Feat has an incredible legacy of music and the celebration that comes with it, and the near future will see them honoring their own past with more playing.
But it’s time to give the trusty tour bus, however comfy, a rest.
