Right after the Zac Brown Band releases its “Jekyll + Hyde” album April 28, the band will hit the road to promote it — eventually playing Wrigley Field. The Chicago date will be Sept. 11, shortly before the tour’s end in Del Mar, California, on Sept. 19. Before all that, the band will premiere music from the album during its first performance on “Saturday Night Live” this weekend.
One of the tracks on the new album, “Homegrown,” has become Zac Brown Band’s highest chart debut for a song — climbing to No. 10 on country radio this past week.
“Jekyll + Hyde” is coming out after the band’s three platinum-selling albums “Uncaged,” “You Get What You Give” and “The Foundation.” The group has already won three Grammy Awards.
Along with headlining at Wrigley Field, the band will make other iconic venue appearances at Fenway Park in Boston and Citi Field in New York.
