Karl Denson will hit the road with the Rolling Stones for nine shows this month in Australia and New Zealand. Denson’s first date with the legendary rockers comes on October 25 in Adelaide, AUS. The run lasts until November 22 where it’ll wrap up in Auckland.

“This is way beyond my wildest dreams, for sure!” Denson told UTSanDiego. “I wouldn’t have even put it on my bucket list, because I would have considered it ludicrous (to contemplate).”

Denson’s previously scheduled shows with his band Tiny Universe featuring Roosevelt Collier have also been cancelled while he is on the road with the Stones
