Bonnie Raitt Shares Stage With Jimmie Vaughan At Capitol Theatre

Bonnie Raitt and her band began the Tried & True Tour last night at The Capitol Theater in Port Chester, New York. Jimmie Vaughan & The Tilt-A-Whirl are on board supporting the run and Vaughan emerged at the end of Raitt’s set for a performance of “The Pleasure Is All Mine.”

“I’m looking forward to having my longtime pal and one of my favorite artists, blues legend Jimmie Vaughan & The Tilt-A-Whirl Band be our special guests for the late Summer tour,” Raitt said back when the tour was announced. “We’ve shared many gigs and duets over the years but never as a ‘double trouble’ co-bill. Bound to be some good blues rockin’ going on – can’t wait to hit the road together!”

Vaughan joined Raitt during the latter’s encore at The Cap, which began with “I Can’t Make You Love Me.” Vaughan then came out to add guitar and vocals to “The Pleasure Is All Mine,” the blues staple written by Billy “The Kid” Emerson that he has performed with Raitt before.

The Tried & True Tour continues through New York with shows in Bethel on Friday, August 22 and Canandaigua on Saturday, August 23. Several additional stops follow before concluding at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Denver on September 25.
