Patrick Stump is about to hit the road again in support of his recent EP Truant Wave. The former Fall Out Boy frontman will kick off his summer tour on August 3rd at the Varsity Theater in Minneapolis, Minnesota and wrap up later in the month at the HOB Parish Room in New Orleans. The singer is likely to play several songs from his forthcoming solo debut Soul Punk, along with some interesting covers such as Kanye West's "All of the Lights," which he performed in this exclusive clip from a recent performance at Schuba's in Chicago.

For another taste of Stump in solo mode, you can check out the acoustic set he recorded at the Rolling Stone office earlier this year, which includes a rather impressive rendition of Tom Waits' "Step Right Up."

“All Along the Watchtower”

The Jimi Hendrix Experience | 1968

Jimi Hendrix got hold of Bob Dylan's early John Wesley Harding tapes and in late 1967 recorded a version of "All Along the Watchtower" with the Experience in London. Dissatisfied with that first development, Hendrix brought those tapes with him to New York in early 1968 when he began work on Electric Ladyland. Eddie Kramer, Hendrix's engineer at the time, told Rolling Stone that Hendrix "was still looked upon by his basically white audience as the mammoth black guitar hero. There was a constant fight within him to expand himself." Hendrix's successful take on Dylan's work has long been recognized by the songwriter. "I liked Jimi Hendrix's record of this and ever since he died I've been doing it that way," Dylan wrote in the liner notes to his Biograph box set. "Strange how when I sing it, I always feel it's a tribute to him in some kind of way."
