Don Henley’s first solo album in 15 years – Cass County – was released today by Capitol Records and is available now at all music retailers, including iTunes and Amazon, and in the artist’s official online store. The Target deluxe edition includes two exclusive tracks – Henley’s duet with Stevie Nicks, “It Don’t Matter To The Sun,” and “Here Come Those Tears Again,” which features harmony vocals by Vince Gill and Alison Krauss.
In support of the album release, the North American Cass County Tour 2015 kicks off October 3 in Phoenix, Arizona, and each ticket ordered online through the primary ticket outlet will also receive a Cass County deluxe CD. Singer-songwriter Shawn Colvin will open on all the dates. See itinerary below or visit donhenley.com/events.
