Amos Lee has announced a new string of summer tour dates with

Tickets for the dates with
Bruce Hornsby & The Noisemakers go on sale this Friday, March 22nd. See below for full schedule -- more 2019 dates to be announced soon.
Amos Lee's new album My New Moon is out now on Dualtone, and has received some of the highest praise of his career, with Billboard calling it "the most personal and deeply felt of his seven studio albums." The record debuted at #1 on their Rock and Americana/Folk charts and #2 on the Independent Album chart, with raves elsewhere from Salon ("music to help listeners heal"), NPR
Music ("soulful voice and empathetic lyrics"), Rolling Stone ("haunting folk songwriting") and beyond.

Amos just kicked off his first run of 2019 shows over the weekend, but his tour is already getting buzz with the Philly Inquirer naming his hometown stop one of the "biggest concerts coming to Philadelphia" this year. The Indianapolis Star and New Orleans Magazine also highlighted him as a must-see act this year. In their review of his recent performance at The Ryman, Nashville Noise says "he's sure to make your night a religious experience."
