The man who once howled over Jimmy Page‘s riffs is now sharing a stage with a cellist named Barney Morse-Brown. Two confirmed European dates mark Saving Grace’s first announced 2027 appearances. Plant and the band will perform at Gent Jazz Festival in Ghent, Belgium, on July 10, then one week later at Sigulda Castle’s open-air stage in Latvia on July 17. General tickets went on sale October 30, 2026. The Latvian date offered early access through the L Tips Agency newsletter, with tickets distributed via the BILIETAI.LT network.
The Dates and Who’s Playing
Two European summer performances give fans their first confirmed look at Saving Grace’s 2027 schedule.
- July 10, 2027 — Gent Jazz Festival, Ghent, Belgium (festival runs July 1–17; Plant is among the artists announced alongside Thundercat, Gregory Porter, Kamasi Washington, and Tinariwen)
- July 17, 2027 — Sigulda Castle Open-Air Stage, Sigulda, Latvia
Saving Grace’s lineup features Plant and vocalist Suzi Dian sharing front-of-stage duties, Tony Kelsey on guitar, Matt Worley on guitar and banjo, Barney Morse-Brown on cello, and Oli Jefferson on drums. The set draws from folk, Americana, and blues — no Marshall stacks in sight.
What These Shows Will Actually Sound Like
Saving Grace isn’t a side project or a nostalgic detour — the 2025 studio album and a full year of live work confirm it’s Plant’s main creative vehicle.
Think of Saving Grace as Plant’s MTV Unplugged moment — the stripped, acoustic pivot — except it isn’t a one-off special. The group released its studio album Saving Grace in 2025, anchoring a year of consistent live activity across Europe. The ensemble format is intimate by design: acoustic-rooted textures, Dian’s harmonies woven alongside Plant’s vocals, and a sound that prioritizes feel over volume.
Gent Jazz provides meaningful context for the July 10 date. The festival also features Thundercat and Kamasi Washington, artists operating at music’s more exploratory edges. Plant belongs in that company — someone clearly uninterested in retracing ground already covered.
The announcement identified two 2027 dates, with no additional performances confirmed in reports reviewed by AXS.TV and Ultimate Classic Rock. Two dates aren’t a tour. What they are is a signal — that Saving Grace remains an active, forward-moving project with more European summers likely ahead.
