ZZ Top’s Billy Gibbons Also Has a Tour Scheduled with His Solo Band
In other news, ZZ Top frontman Billy Gibbons has a two series of special gigs scheduled in December, and he’s also taking his solo group, The BFG Band, on the road in early 2026.
First up, Gibbons, who turns 76 on December 16, will be playing three birthday concerts at the famed Troubadour venue in West Hollywood, California, on December 18, 19, and 20. Billy will be joined by a different special guest at each gig. They are, respectively, Orianthi, The Doors’ Robby Krieger, and Joe Bonamassa.
Then, on December 26 and 27, Gibbons will be playing his annual “Jungle Show” concerts at Antone’s in Austin, Texas. The events, which always take place between Christmas and New Year’s, will feature Billy performing with guitarist Jimmie Vaughan, Hammond organ player Mike Flanigin, and Double Trouble drummer Chris Layton.
Gibbons also will be joined by Flanigin and Layton, as The BFG Band, for his 2026 solo tour. The cross-country trek begins on January 20 in Napa, California, and winds down on February 11 in Plymouth, Massachusetts. Check out all of the Rock & Roll Hall of Famers’ solo gigs at BillyGibbons.com.
