Grammy Award-nominated R&B artist and singer, songwriter Leon Bridges has announced his fall 2016 tour dates. The tour is scheduled to kick off in Burlington, VT on September 8and touches down in a slew of major cities across North America before concluding onOctober 2 in Richmond, VA.   As always, the Texas native’s seven-piece band will join him on the fall trek.  Check LeonBridges.com for up to date information.  A full list of Fall tour dates are below.

The artist presale (pw: river) starts February 8  at 12:00 pm EST with tickets for the tour going on sale to the public February 12 at 12:00 pm local.

Support comes from English singer, songwriter and guitarist Lianne La Havas. Her Grammy Award–nominated second album, Blood, was released by Nonesuch/Warner Bros. Records in the US last summer to critical acclaim. La Havas first came to international attention with her highly praised 2012 debut Is Your Love Big Enough?, which won Album of the Year at iTunes UK as well as Barclaycard Mercury Prize and Ivor Novello Best Album nominations. “I’m so excited to go on the road with Leon because I am a fan! It will also be a great chance to see many parts of the USA that I’ve not yet had the pleasure of visiting,” she says.

Intense demand to see the compelling singer/songwriter’s live show has been overwhelming since the release of his universally hailed, Grammy Award-nominated debut album Coming Home (available at smarturl.it/ComingHomeiT), released via Columbia Records on June 23, 2015. The Coming Home deluxe edition features five never-before-released songs from the Coming Home sessions, including: “There She Goes,” “Daisy Mae,” “Mississippi Kisses,” “Here in My Arms,” and “Outta Line”.

 

The fall tour announcement comes on the heels of Bridges current sold out Spring 2015 tour as well as last year’s sold out fall run, which was his first-ever full length North American headlining tour and included The Apollo Theatre.

Nate Todd was born on the central plains of Nebraska, but grew up on the high plains of the Texas panhandle. With not much to do in either place, music was his constant companion. His parents dubbed the first two albums he ever owned onto a tape for him. Side A was Bert and Ernie’s Sing Along. Side B was Sgt. Peppers. His lifelong love affair with music started early as he practically grew up in a Rock & Roll band, with his father and uncle often taking him out on the road or into the studio with them. Nate began performing live at sixteen and hasn’t looked back, having played in numerous bands from L.A. to Austin. At the age of twenty he was bitten by the writing bug, and upon moving to Denver decided to pursue a degree from Metropolitan State University where he recently graduated with a B.A. in English and a minor in Cinema Studies.
