Fifty years after his historic performance at Woodstock, Arlo Guthrie has announced his 20/20 Tour in the new year. According to the announcement, “After decades of Arlo perpetually touring, the folksinger is dialing it back a bit, but the road has become a way of life for Arlo: sharing songs and stories, getting to the heart of what really matters, and of course, being a comedic agitator. It’s in his blood. It’s who he is. It’s what he does. Stirring the pot, questioning the powers that be, and reminding us what it’s all about with humor and passion.”
The press release continues: “Although Arlo is going to ease the breakneck pace of touring from years past to take more time to ride his motorcycle, see the sights and visit friends, he will reappear at some of his favorite venues, and even a few new ones throughout 2020 and beyond.”
Guthrie’s annual Thanksgiving date at Carnegie Hall, taking place this year on Nov. 30, will be his final one, the singer-songwriter announced. Guthrie has kept the tradition alive for more than 50 years. His daughter sarah Lee Guthrie will open that show.

Guthrie’s 20/20 Tour will continue to feature the crowd favorite “Alice’s Restaurant Massacree” through May 2020. Accompanying him will be longtime bandmates Abe Guthrie and drummer Terry “A La Berry” Hall.
For select dates of the 20/20 Tour, Guthrie will be joined by Folk Uke, described as an “enchantingly harmonizing, irreverent and indecorously humored duo of Cathy Guthrie and Amy Nelson.” Folk Uke has three albums to date and their music has been featured in Orange is the New Black and Super.
