The Florida leg is already in the books. Greensky Bluegrass played Fort Lauderdale, Tampa–St. Petersburg, Orlando and Tallahassee from Nov. 5 to 8, and starting Wednesday the band turns north for a run that reaches a long list of On at 8 markets between now and late January. When this tour came together, our listings counted 22 Greensky dates across 19 of our markets in a 90-day window.

The East Coast run starts Wednesday, Nov. 11, at Coach Music Factory in Greenville, S.C., at 7 p.m. From there it's two nights at The Exchange in Roanoke on Nov. 12 and 13, both at 7 p.m., then Mountain Stage in Charleston, W.Va., on Sunday, Nov. 15, a 460-capacity date at 7 p.m. with tickets at $30 to $35, the smallest room on this stretch.

The following week works through the Northeast. The band plays the Hackensack Meridian Health Theatre at the Count Basie Center in Red Bank, N.J., on Wednesday, Nov. 18, at 7:30 p.m. ($37.85 to $87.35); the Appell Center for the Performing Arts in York, Pa., on Thursday, Nov. 19, at 7:30 p.m.; and Hampton Beach Casino Ballroom in New Hampshire on Friday, Nov. 20, at 8 p.m. ($44.35). It wraps the run at College Street Music Hall in New Haven on Saturday, Nov. 21, at 8 p.m., in a 650-capacity room.

These are the closing weeks of the band's fall tour, which JamBase reported opened Sept. 3 in Richmond and which has supported their album *XXV*, per BroadwayWorld. Live For Live Music noted that American Babies, featuring guitarist Tom Hamilton, open a number of fall dates.

Two nights in Chicago, then two more at home in Kalamazoo: the band's New Year's run is a homecoming.

Then comes the holiday stretch. Greensky plays two nights at Chicago's Salt Shed on Dec. 30 (8:30 p.m., $58.25 to $119.30) and New Year's Eve (9:30 p.m., $75.70 to $145.05), a run Relix confirmed in July. The band later added Jan. 1 and 2 at Wings Event Center in Kalamazoo, both at 7 p.m., turning it into a four-night run that JamBase called a Kalamazoo homecoming. For Michigan fans, that's the one to circle.

January heads west on the front end of a 24-date winter tour that runs through March and ends at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium, per JamBase. The band plays The Bellwether in Los Angeles on Jan. 14 (7:30 p.m., $48.60), The Sound in Del Mar on Jan. 15 (8 p.m.), the Fox Theater in Oakland on Jan. 16 (7:30 p.m.), the 550-capacity Crown Room at Crystal Bay Club on Jan. 21 (8 p.m., $45), Rockwell at the Complex in Salt Lake City on Jan. 22 (doors 6 p.m., show 7 p.m.) and The Mission Ballroom in Denver on Jan. 23 (7 p.m.). JamBase reports Magoo opens six of the eight January shows, with Eggy joining the bill in Denver.

Which rooms to watch? In the East, Mountain Stage and New Haven are the intimate ones. Out west, the Crown Room is the smallest room of the winter swing. And if you can only make one, the Kalamazoo nights are where the band's hometown crowd will be loudest.
