Tickets for all confirmed U.S. tour dates go on sale this Friday, April 26. Additional dates are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
Sutherland's10-track sophomore full-length album, Reckless & Me, is highlighted by the singles "Open Road," "This Is How It's Done" and the recently-released "Something You Love." Throughout Reckless & Me, Sutherland offers his Americana and country rock-infused songwriting style and features his gift of soulful storytelling - all delivered with his distinctive, whiskey-soaked and gravel-laced voice. Pre-order for the album is available now.
Sutherland's three-decade, award-winning acting career has made him a familiar face around the globe, but his other passion is music. "I asked myself, says Sutherland, "'what is the thing that I love about acting, and music?' 'What is the common denominator?' For me it's storytelling and music is a very different way of doing it."
Produced by Jude Cole, Reckless & Me marks the follow up to Sutherland's critically acclaimed debut album, Down In A Hole (2016). Now returning with Reckless & Me, Sutherland wants to keep touring and sharing these songs with his fans. Though he loves writing and recording, the stage holds a special place in his heart, and for the last three years, he's toured extensively earning a reputation as a relentless road warrior.
"I couldn't have imagined the depth with which I have fallen in love with touring," says Sutherland. "To have the opportunity to convey intimate, personal stories to an audience has proven to be priceless."
