Plant will tour with a new group called the Band of Joy that includes Patty Griffin. The first leg of the tour will begin July 13 in Memphis. Plant and the Band of Joy will release an as-yet-untitled album in late summer or early fall. Plant says he and Krauss get together quite often and sometimes they dance.
