Leon, which is available to pre-order and pre-save via www.leonbridges.com. Marking Bridges’ first album in three years, the album was recorded and produced by Ian Fitchuk (Kacey Musgraves, Maggie Rogers) at El Desierto on the outskirts of Mexico City with co-production from Daniel Tashian (Kacey Musgraves) in Nashville. The LP is described as his “most poignant, powerful, and personal body of work to date” and includes the single “Peaceful Place.”

“I wanted to bring the magic and connection that made this record to this tour, so I felt it was important to pick the right rooms to play,” Bridges said in a statement. “I’ll be performing at intimate theaters this run with my incredible band. These are listening rooms—beautiful stages that truly showcase the music and allow me to get back to analog instrumentation. Plus, I’ve really missed playing guitar. I’ve got my brothers, Hermanos Gutiérrez, supporting me on tour as well. The tour starts in Austin and ends with a truly epic night in Fort Worth—aka Panther City—joined by my friend and Texas legend, Charley Crockett. Can’t wait to play this record for y’all live! Hope to see you out there.”

Presales for the tour start on Tuesday, August 20, and tickets go on sale to the public on Friday, August 23, at 10 a.m. local time. Bridges is donating $1 from every ticket sold will go directly to his charity, The Big Good.

Bridges is repped by CAA and Mick Management’s Jonathan Eshak and Zeke Hutchins. Reports submitted to Pollstar Boxoffice for Bridges include an Aug. 24, 2023, show at
