New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Shore Fire Media) Bhi Bhiman has confirmed a slew of national tour dates in March opening for Rosie Thomas. The two-week trek supports his "first-rate" (The Washington Post) new album 'BHIMAN', out this week on BooCoo Music. Before the tour, Bhi plays a hometown CD release show in San Francisco on Feb. 18th.
"Bhiman's songs would be remarkable from anybody: He's a penetrating melodist as well as an accomplished guitarist and a striking singer." - Robert Christgau, NPR All Things Considered

"Wry and subversive, the writing and performances here are first-rate, folk-based and undeniably unique." - The Washington Post
"Woody Guthrie's guitar was emblazoned with the words 'This machine kills fascists.' Bhi Bhiman's guitar should read 'This machine kills the humorless.'" - KDHX
"Tightly woven stories that still stretch into a myriad of directions." - Daytrotter
"[Bhiman] will transfix you into that special kind of lump-in-the-throat, moist-eyed stupor of utter gratitude that this singer even exists. He's that good." - My Old Kentucky Blog
