The Cox Across America Tour kicks off tonight at The Roxy Theatre in Los Angeles and is scheduled to make stops at seven well-known venues from coast to coast, including the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland (December 5), The Cubby Bear in Chicago (December 6), Great American Music Hall in San Francisco (December 10) and The Knitting Factory in New York City (December 19).

Tickets for all shows are available through local radio promotions in each city where Dewey and his band are performing and to members of the Dewey Cox fan club. Details are available at CoxAcrossAmerica.com.

Each concert will be preceded by a special advance screening of “Walk Hard” which opens December 21. The film tells the story of a mythic rock ‘n’ roll icon whose music influenced a nation.

The movie’s soundtrack hits stores December 4.
