From the desk of Kevin Greenspon:
Hi everyone,
I’m proud to announce 3 months of non-stop tourdates around the entire USA from July 28 through October 20. My live performances will feature video projections that Paul Skomsvold (Former Selves) and Matthieu Séry designed for my new Folding Focus 10-song DVD. A new video for “Maroon Bells” from the DVD can be viewed here: http://vimeo.com/46087157
In addition to the Folding Focus DVD, several new releases including a 7″ EP with hand-painted covers and limited tour-only cassettes will be available at the shows along with the entire Bridgetown catalog. Here’s a photo of some of them. All orders will still be mailed out while I’m gone, courtesy of Sam from Family Time Records.
For more music, video, info and links for the venues/houses, visit: http://www.kevingreenspon.info or http://www.bridgetownrecords.info
Details and lineups for many of the later shows in the tour are still developing, and I will update the calendar info on my sites daily. Please RSVP on facebook at http://www.facebook.com/events/130253490448981, and add the new tour blog on Tumblr, where I’ll post photos and notes from the road.
I’m looking forward to hanging out with everyone again or for the first time! Please help spread the word if you have a minute and share my sites or new video with friends on your blogs, Facebook, Twitter, or share with any friends in these areas. It helps a lot even if you can’t make it to a show or live overseas. If you can help with any TBA dates, know any cool things to check out, or I’m not playing your city/state, let me know!
