About this listen
Little Feat, the swamp rock legends co-founded by the late Lowell George back in 1969 after his Frank Zappa stint, just dropped a bombshell this week with their 2026 Last Farewell Tour announcement, as reported by Live for Live Music and Relix. Keyboardist Bill Payne, 76 and counting, told Rolling Stone hes resisting full retirement but eyeing less bus grind at his age, with dates kicking off April 10 in Orlando and hitting Austin, Houston, Dark Star Jubilee, and summer spots like Denvers Paramount on August 22. Theyre not quitting cold turkey, Payne insistsits a wind-down for residences and specials, prices sure to spike as fans rush for one last Dixie Chicken groove.
Adding intrigue, the band unveiled Feathers And A Smile, a never-before-heard gem penned by George himself, featuring his daughter Inara George on vocals, straight from Live for Live Musics coverage. Relix notes they also shared a pandemic-era Long Distance Love remake with Amy Helm, tying back to Georges masterpiece, while teasing the February 21 world premiere of Little Feat: The Documentary at Montanas Big Sky Film Festival. No fresh public appearances or business moves for George, whos been gone since 79, but this tour buzz revives his legacy amid lineup nods to departed pals like Paul Barrere.
A niche BioSnap AI podcast updated January 24 claims no recent George Lowell developments, though its audio bio dwells on his tragic heart attack end. Social media lights up with fan chatter on these drops, no verified mentions from insiders. Speculation swirls on tour extensions potentially honoring George more overtly, but thats unconfirmed chatter. Headlines scream farewell frenzy for the Feat honoring their founder, whose small shoe size inspired the namewhat a quirky origin for enduring rock royalty. Word count: 378.
