Robert Plant still isn’t reuniting Led Zeppelin, but he is digging deep into his past for the name of his next project. Coming off a successful collaboration with the bluegrass singer and fiddler Alison Krauss, Mr. Plant, left, will next hit the road with a group called the Band of Joy, a name cribbed from the 1960s group from Birmingham, England, in which he performed with the future Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham.
In a news release Mr. Plant said the lineup for the new Band of Joy would include the singer Patty Griffin, the instrumentalist and vocalist Darrell Scott, the bassist Byron House, the drummer Marco Giovino and the guitarist Buddy Miller. The band will begin a 12-city tour on July 13 in Memphis and conclude on July 31 in Miami; it is also preparing an album.
