Brother Cane Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

Brother Cane is an American rock band originally from Birmingham, Alabama. Formed by singer/guitarist Damon Johnson and bassist Glenn Maxey in 1991, the group released three studio albums and charted several singles including three number 1’s and five top 10 hits. Brother Cane found immediate success with the release of its self-titled debut album in July 1993 which delivered three singles: "Got No Shame", “That Don’t Satisfy Me”, and “Hard Act To Follow.” “Got No Shame” reached #1 on the Mainstream Rock charts and garnered the band U.S. tours with Aerosmith, Robert Plant and Lynyrd Skynyrd. Their followup, Seeds (1995), yielded another #1 Rock track, the haunting and swampy “And Fools Shine On.” This radio success led to a lengthy and successful tour in support of Van Halen. Three years later saw the release of Wishpool (1998) and Brother Cane’s third #1 song at Rock Radio, “I Lie In The Bed I Make”, as well as a US tour supporting their friends Candlebox. After personnel changes at Virgin Records (the band’s label), as well as a major shift in style at rock and alternative radio formats, the group disbanded in 2000. Over the next 20 years Johnson went on to become one of the most sought after guitarists and songwriters in rock. Touring extensively with rock icons Alice Cooper and Thin Lizzy, and co-writing tracks for the likes of Sammy Hagar, Stevie Nicks, Carlos Santana and Steven Tyler, Johnson’s profile steadily rose. In 2021 Johnson began filling in on guitar for Gary Rossington in Lynyrd Skynyrd. It was while touring with Skynyrd that Johnson was pleasantly surprised at how many fans not only remembered Brother Cane, but shared their stories on how much the band and those songs meant to them. Brother Cane returned to performing in 2022, released two brand new songs in October '23, and continue to schedule shows around Johnson's now full-time commitment to Skynyrd. “I’m just over the moon about this,” says Johnson. “Brother Cane fans are some of the most passionate that I’ve encountered in all of my travels.” He adds, “I'm certainly proud of all these songs, and the guys and I are energized to be bringing them to the people once again.”
