Robert Plant BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Robert Plant has had an exceptionally busy week showcasing his latest creative chapter. The legendary Led Zeppelin frontman wrapped up his U.S. tour in Valley Center, California on November 23rd, performing at The Events Center at Harrah's Rincon with his band Saving Grace alongside special guests Rosie Flores and Suzi Dian.

Just days before that finale, Plant made a major media push to promote his twelfth studio album, Saving Grace, which dropped on September 26th. CBS released professionally shot footage on November 22nd of three songs Plant performed live at Port Chester's Capitol Theatre on November 8th. The performances featured "Everybody's Song," "It's a Beautiful Day Today," and "Higher Rock." That same morning, Plant appeared on CBS Saturday Morning where he performed "Higher Rock" at seven a.m. Eastern Time, marking one of his last U.S. tour promotion appearances.

Plant also sat down for a full interview with CBS News anchor Robert Costa to discuss the new album in depth, with the conversation airing on November 25th and 26th. The intimate discussion covered his departure from rock and roll tradition toward folk material, a significant artistic pivot at this stage of his career.

Perhaps most notably, Plant delivered an NPR Tiny Desk Concert performance on Friday the 24th, recorded as an intimate five-song set. Performing alongside bandmates Suzi Dian on vocals and harmonica, Matt Worley on guitar and banjo, Tony Kelsey on guitar, Barney Morse-Brown on cello, and Oli Jefferson on drums, Plant delivered a stripped-down career-spanning performance. The setlist included traditional "Gospel Plough," the Moby Grape cover "It's a Beautiful Day Today," "Higher Rock," "Everybody's Song," and a fresh take on Led Zeppelin III's "Gallows Pole," which Plant described as a tribute to Lead Belly who originally introduced him to the classic.

Looking ahead, Plant has ten additional concerts scheduled across the United Kingdom in December and Brazil in May 2026, continuing the Saving Grace Tour. His next show is December 8th in Portsmouth at the Main Hall, followed by dates in Eastbourne, London, Birmingham, Manchester, Edinburgh, Middlesbrough, Newcastle, and York before heading to São Paulo for the C6 Fest outdoor performance in May.
