Josh Rouse And Grant-Lee Phillips Announce Co-Headlining Fall Tour

Josh Rouse and Grant-Lee Phillips will kick off a co-headlining tour on Oct. 5 at Nashville’s City Winery. Playing together for the first time, the Yep Roc Records labelmates are touring in support of their newest albums, Rouse’s Love in the Modern Age and Phillips’ Widdershins. The tour will hit Boston, Washington, Chicago, and several other cities through Oct. 20, with additional dates being added.

“I’ve admired Josh Rouse’s music for a long while,” says Phillips. “I love that he’s always taking his songs to new places, making new discoveries. On a road-trip like this, you find yourselves sharing notes, bouncing ideas off each other, trading guitar chords, keeping each other awake on the highway. It’s a full-on mobile summit.“

“I have admired Grant since my early 20’s,” says Rouse. “When Mighty Joe Moon came out my friends and I thought it was the best record we’d ever heard. I actually sent fan mail! So sharing the stage with him will be a dream come true.”
