Matisyahu Broadens ‘Festival Of Lights’

Following his current tour and presenting a career-spanning look into his catalog, Matisyahu begins his “Festival Of Lights” with an acoustic performance at San Fran’s Nob Hill Masonic Center. Atlanta is next with the reggae musician crossing the country in 48 hours to play the Gwinnett Center For The Performing Arts.

Of the seven dates, four will be acoustic while three will feature him performing with his backing band, Brooklyn’s The Dub Trio. Individually, each show is being described as a “custom-built live experience.”
