Robert Plant Performs “Immigrant Song” for First Time in Over Two Decades
Robert Plant always incorporates some Led Zeppelin songs into his solo sets, and for fans in attendance at the Secret Solstice Festival in Iceland, they got to see a Zeppelin classic sung live by Plant for the first time in over two decades.
Plant’s June 23 set with his backing band, The Sensational Spaceshifters, saw them close things out with “Immigrant Song,” the opening track to 1970’s Led Zeppelin III. The last time Plant performed the song live was during a show with Jimmy Page in Toyko in February 1996.
Plant has only a handful of tour dates this summer and fall. His next tour stop stateside is a co-headlining date on September 17 in Philadelphia with Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats before headlining night two of the Bourbon & Beyond festival in Louisville, Ky. on September 21.
