Tour: The Revival Tour Coming to the U.S. and Canada, Spring 2012

Alyssa Hewitt — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 23:00:24 +0000

The Revival Tour has announced a string of U.S. and Canadian tour dates for the spring of 2012. The tour, a collaborative event between musicians, was first started back in 2008 as the brainchild of Hot Water Music’s Chuck Ragan. Of the tour Ragan has said:

“There’s no hierarchy; it’s about sharing music together and bringing it to people in an extremely honest and grassroots fashion. It’s apparent that simple songs of folk music has been rising in popularity and it’s a joy to bring known artists that people already love but very important to us to expose lesser known artists to the world who play exemplary music and live by ethics we admire whether they’re solo musicians, groups or a singer of a band.”

Now in its 5^th year, The Revival Tour will kick off March 20^th in Dallas, TX featuring Chuck Ragan (Hot Water Music), Dan Andirano (Alkaline Trio/Emergency Room), Cory Branan, Tommy Gabel (Against Me!), and Nathaniel Rateliff.

Tickets are on sale here starting today, and offer four separate pre-sale packages for fans.
