Event Details
Six String Southern Productions is thrilled to announce multi-platinum rock band Blues Traveler is heading to the Saenger Theatre in Mobile, AL on Thursday, May 7, 2026.
The band’s 2026 momentum follows a milestone year in 2025, when Blues Traveler celebrated 30 years since the release of their GRAMMY® Award-winning breakthrough hit “Run-Around.” The anniversary was marked with widespread media attention, including a feature interview in Rolling Stone with frontman John Popper.
About Blues Traveler:
Nearly 4 decades ago, the four original members of Blues Traveler — John Popper, Chandler Kinchla, Brendan Hill, and the late Bobby Sheehan — gathered in their drummer’s parents’ basement in Princeton, NJ, to jam. From these high school sessions emerged a band that would go on to release a total of 14 studio albums, four of which have gone gold, three platinum, and one six-times platinum, selling more than 10 million combined units worldwide.
Over an illustrious career, Blues Traveler has played more than 2,000 live shows in front of over 30 million people and, with “Run-Around,” achieved the longest-charting radio single in Billboard history — earning the band a GRAMMY® for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. In 2021, Blues Traveler released the GRAMMY®-nominated Traveler’s Blues (Round Hill Records), a collection of reimagined and recharged classics from the American blues songbook and the group’s first official blues album. The second release in this series, 2023’s Traveler’s Soul, takes a similar approach, consisting of cover songs from a specific genre — this time classic R&B and soul.
