Introducing New Blog Series from Josh, USA & Canada Tour Next Week!

To view this email as a web page, go here.




Greetings folks,

Right away, we have to thank everyone who came out to the shows across Europe and the UK - it was one for the ages!  From the solo acoustic shows to the full rock band concerts, from Madrid to Berlin and over to Glasgow....it was, as Josh called it in his blog, "blinding."

We hope everyone enjoyed the shows, which not only unveiled new presentations of fan favorite songs and unexpected covers (Talking Heads, anyone?), but even at least one yet unheard, original new song from Josh.  Hope it's tickling you European fans still, or those of you at home, on Youtube (here).

And while on Youtube, please check out a new concert video of Josh performing "Roll On" in Dublin this past Summer, which is dedicated to the late, great Derek Nally (of Whelan's fame).  There is a tribute concert to Derek in Dublin tomorrow at The Grand Social with other artists appearing.  See, hear, and learn more here.

But there's more new offerings from Josh to tell you about, from a new SERIES of blog postings, to a new TOUR through the USA and Canada...


"Making a Living in Music": A New Blog Series by Josh Ritter

If you've been a fan of Josh's for a while now, you know that Josh loves to chime in from the road, by blogging in between soundchecks and flights on his site Book of Jubilations.

But now - as if finishing his first novel and writing new songs wasn't enough - Josh has a new endeavor: a series of writings on his blog about his making a life in music.  Or, making music a life.  Or, perhaps how YOU could do it too.  It's part advice column, part how-to series, part autobiography, part confessional.  You gotta read it!

Josh has just posted his introduction to the series, "Making a Living in Music."  You can read it right HERE.

We hope you enjoy these as much as Josh seems to enjoy writing them....
