Blackberry Smoke at Vetter Stone Amphitheater

Rattle, Ramble and Roll Tour 2025

The world has come to know Blackberry Smoke as a rugged band of Southern rock outlaws who take no shortcuts nor spare any expense when putting on a show. And like every year past, 2025 fell in line to watch them take the roads where they'll be giving us the complete roundabout through their iconic discography. This Friday, June 6, we welcome the six-man ensemble to the Vetter Stone Amphitheater, a live music landmark in Mankato famed for its natural aesthetic amid the breathtaking woodland locales by the Minnesota River bank. The engagement, titled the "Rattle, Ramble, and Roll" Tour, first dropped with 18 cities (and a week-long cruise) on its itinerary but has since extended in response to rising demands. 

Last year revealed itself to be the toughest period for Blackberry Smoke with the passing of their drummer and co-founder Brit Turner, whom they paid respects to in a rousing tribute concert in midsummer. Brit's spirit and legacy live on in the band's music, cascading in the gritty yet eclectic melodies by surviving members Charlie Starr, Paul Jackson, Richard Turner, Brandon Still, Benji Shanks, and Kent Aberle.

Let them ignite a fire in your soul. Blackberry Smoke are ardent followers of the gospel as told by Lynyrd Skynyrd — greasy Southern hard rock that embraces blues and country influences. They offer us an impressive slate of hits, among them are classics such as "One Horse Town" (The Whippoorwill), "Good One Comin' On" (Little Piece of Dixie), and "Waiting for the Thunder" (Like an Arrow). They have a high-charting reputation on the Billboard 200, with five out of eight LPs securing Top 10 spots on the Country Album charts, two of which clinched #1. This time around, their sets combine highlights from most of their entire catalog, from debut to their eighth studio record (Be Right Here), featuring fan-favorites like "Pretty Little Lie," "Sleeping Dogs," "Ain't Much Left of Me," etc. Refer to one of the tour's sets below.
