Kathleen Edwards Announces 2008 Spring Tour Dates Supporting New Album 'Mesmerizing'

Burlington, MA. (Top40 Charts/ Zoe/ Rounder Records) - Folk rocker Kathleen Edwards will hit the road for her first major US tour in over two years, in support of Asking for Flowers with 21 dates. Debuting 'brilliant' (Paste, 3/08) new tunes, she recently discussed her candid songwriting style with the New York Daily News, 'I'm a medium for other people's stories, for people who don't know how to tell them.'

Although Flowers has it's share of poignant moments, Edwards still 'kicks butt' (Entertainment Weekly) with 'bravado and beauty' (Rolling Stone) on what many will call her best record yet.
