Matisyahu’s Summer Journey
Matisyahu’s tour begins on July 9 at Philadelphia’s World CafĂ© Live. Dates along the East coast will continue until July 14, including an appearance at New York City’s annual Reggae Carifest on July 10.
The tour takes a break for the remainder of July and picks up again on August 4, with a show in Boston. From there, Matisyahu heads East for shows in Cleveland, Indianapolis, Chicago, and St. Louis. A final show for the month is scheduled at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre near Denver on August 20.
The singer kicks off the month of September with a few shows in New York, but he’ll be hitting the West Coast on September 20 with a show in Portland. The tour heads South from there, with several shows in major markets in California, Arizona, and New Mexico. Continuing Eastward, Matisyahu will play a show in Dallas on September 27, followed by two gigs in Tennessee. A final show for the tour will be on October 1 in Bloomington, Ind.
Another treat for jam fans is that the shows from August 4 to August 11 will be opening for guitar-maestro, Trey Anastasio.
Matisyahu has been garnering much praise recently for a what is relatively short career. He has played at number of high-profile festivals lately, including the recent Bonnaroo. His last album, Live at Stubb’s, was released in April.
