Ringo Starr Performs His First Ever Ryman Show To Benefit LA Fire Victims

Ringo Starr has played his first ever show at Nashville’s historic Ryman Theater with the announcement that proceeds from the show will go to the Red Cross for those effected by the California wildfires.

Ringo, who usually has an all-star band performing both his and their own songs, played an all-Ringo setlist for the first time in decades. The two Nashville shows in 14 and 15 January 2025 are to launch Ringo’s new country album ‘Look Up’.

At the first show Ringo was joined by Sheryl Crow, Rodney Crowell, Mickey Guyton, Emmylou Harris, Sarah Jarosz, Jamey Johnson, Brenda Lee, Larkin Poe, Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, The War And Treaty and Jack White.

He played many of his old Beatles songs, his old solo songs and songs from the new album. The setlist was a real surprise for Ringo fans going back to his solo albums ‘Beaucoups of Blues’ (1970) and ‘Ringo’ (1973). ‘Have You Seen My Baby’ from ‘Ringo’ was played for the first time as was the 1976 single ‘You Don’t Know Me At All’ and a Beatles song ‘What Goes On’.
