(Press Here) Gov't Mule has announced their plans for New Year's Eve, revealing that the acclaimed GRAMMY-nominated band - led by guitar legend, vocalist, songwriter and producer Warren Haynes - will be shaking things up and moving their annual celebration to a different Northeast city this year for the first time in 20 years.

On Thursday, December 31, Gov't Mule is bringing A Southern State of Mind to Boston to headline MGM Music Hall at Fenway for a special "Gov't Mule & Friends" show. Among the special guests and friends already set to join are Haynes's former Allman Brothers Band bandmates Jaimoe and Marc Qui-ones, ABB alum Chuck Leavell, former members of The Black Crowes Steve Gorman and Audley Freed, Reese Wynans, and Kevn Kinney, with more to be announced. Gov't Mule has been bringing their fan community together to ring in the new year with their special themed shows since 2002. After two decades celebrating at NYC's Beacon Theatre, the party moves to Boston for the first time ever.

"Playing the Beacon Theatre in New York City for New Year's Eve has been amazing for the past 20 years but now it's time to try something new," shares Haynes. "Boston has always been an amazing audience for us. We're excited to open a new chapter. It's gonna be fantastic to have a lot of our friends and special guests there with us blowing it out."
