March 9 (UPI) -- Singer-songwriter Bob Dylan is going on tour in 2020.

The 78-year-old recording artist will perform on a U.S. tour featuring Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats and Hot Club of Cowtown in the summer.

The tour begins June 4 in Bend, Ore., and ends July 12 in Bethel Woods, N.Y. Tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. local time, with pre-sale tickets available Thursday at 10 a.m.

Rateliff confirmed the news in a tweet Monday.
