Josh Ritter will be hitting the UK for a short five date tour in April 2011. Joined by the Royal City Band, Josh will be playing a two night stand at London’s Scala, one of his favourite venues.
Named amongst the 100 Greatest Living Songwriters by Paste magazine alongside the likes of Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young, Josh Ritter is an impressive talent and rousing live performer, as evidenced by his packed, super special gig at London’s Barbican in September.
Josh is just as striking on his own as he is when playing with the Royal City band, and his show in Pocklington, Yorkshire will see him performing solo.
The Idaho born artist’s fifth, acclaimed album, ‘So Runs The World Away’, was released in the summer.
