Sturgill Simpson is just getting back into the swing of performing after three years off the road. He made up for that lost time Saturday night with a whopping three hour-long set at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. In July, he shared Passage Du Desir, his first album under the new moniker Johnny Blue Skies; last night’s show saw him debut a handful of tracks from that album, plus some fan favorites from his back catalog. The 32-song setlist also saw him do a bunch of covers, including nods to Neil Diamond, the Doors, the Allman Brothers Band, Roy Orbison, When In Rome, Prince, and more. Someone in the crowd took a two-part video of the whole thing, and you can watch those (and see the full setlist) below.
