New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Watsky continues his world tour this week in support of brand new studio LP COMPLAINT which dropped on January 11th, 2019. Last month, Watsky announced that the tour would feature support from Grieves, Feed the Biirds, and Young Beau Prince. The tour - his biggest tour ever - kicked off in Nashville, TN last week before stopping by Icelantic's Winter on the Rocks 2019 at Red Rocks for a one-off show supporting Atmosphere, De La Soul, and Living Legends. On Saturday, he'll continue the headline run at Anchorage, AK's Willawaw. Madison, WI and London, UK have SOLD OUT, but tickets for remaining dates are on-sale now. For full dates, see below and for more information, check out www.georgewatsky.com/.
COMPLAINT contains all the magic that Watsky fans have come to love - whip-smart lyricism, acrobatic rapping, and a bent for balancing intellect and poignance with whimsy and wit - all while continuing to expand on the sonic sphere he occupies. An incredibly varied set, COMPLAINT follows 2016's x Infinitywhich debuted at #4 on the Billboard Rap Albums Chart and gained critical acclaim from NPR, SF Chronicle, Stereogum, Billboard, Alternative Press and more. x
Infinity came just months after Watsky's debut essay collection How To Ruin
Everything (Penguin/Random House) hit shelves and became a New York Times Bestseller.
