Legendary Graham Nash Announces New European Solo Tour Dates
Legendary singer-songwriter Graham Nash announces 2016 European Tour dates in support of his new studio album, This Path Tonight, which will be released worldwide on April 15, 2016. The album will be available on CD, Digital and Vinyl thru Nash’s Blue Castle Label, distributed thru ADA worldwide.
Nash is set to hit the road along with guitarist and producer Shane Fontayne. He will continue his long-time tradition of raising money for charity through the Guacamole Fund’s special benefit seats; in addition, he will be donating $1 per ticket sold to charity. Advance tickets, VIP packages, and Guacamole Fund benefit seats are available at bit.ly/gnasheupr.
“When you strip a song down to its very essence, you either have a song worth singing…or you don’t,” says Nash. “Playing music with Shane Fontayne is and always will be very satisfying. He has an innate sense of ‘performance’ and of arrangement. He never loses sight of the fact that the song must ‘come alive’, must have a reason for being sung in the first place. We want to look in the eyes of our audience, we want to know that we are connecting on a very real level. What a pleasure this tour will be for me.”
This Path Tonight is the new studio album and collection of 10 original songs from Graham Nash. Produced by Shane Fontayne, this is Nash’s first solo record of new music in fourteen years. The album is one of reflection and transition of a singer-songwriter whose career (the Hollies, CSN, CSNY) has spanned more than five decades and counting.
“What a pleasure it was recording this album,” says Graham Nash. “Shane and I had written 20 songs in a month and recorded them in eight days. The music has a different feel to my earlier albums although I hear echoes of each one. This journey of mine was one of self-discovery, of intense creation, of absolute passion.”
Graham Nash is a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Songwriter Hall of Fame Inductee, Grammy Award winner, a New York Times best-selling author, and Officer of the Order of the British Empire (O.B.E.).
