A tour...and shows with Kaki King & Radiolab

Hooray, an "Into The Trees" tour is finally coming into focus!

I've said it before, booking seems to be the last hurdle for a DIY artist. My previous efforts at lining up concerts in a logical geographical order haven't always been a success ;-) These new headlining concerts are thanks to my new booking agent.....(thank you Mark Lourie of Skyline for helping me get to my fans)

I'm going to visit the continent in stages. This first round I have concerts on both coasts, and a few dates in Europe. We'll visit more of the continent in May and June. I say "we" since for the foreseeable future I tour with Cellofamily in tow (i.e. #cellobaby and #cellobabydaddy to those of you who follow me on Twitter...or Alex and Jeff to everyone else!). No doubt this experience of touring with a baby will lead to a fair amount of mommy-blogging....I apologize in advance.

Radiolab shows...

In March I'm pleased to announce that I'm joining the creators of my very favorite radio show, Radiolab, as they hit the road on a three-city tour...

"Jad and Robert will be performing an upcoming episode on symmetry, and how it shapes our very existence—from the origin of the universe, to what we see when we look in the mirror. We'll search for love in ancient Greece, head to modern-day Princeton for a look inside our brains, and revisit an unlikely headline from the Oval Office circa 1979. And one of our favorite musicians, the amazing Zoe Keating, will be on stage to provide live cello scoring!"

We're performing the show in NYC, LA and Seattle.
Tickets for these very special dates can be purchased here


Kaki King shows...

AND last but certainly not least.... I have four concerts on the West coast supporting Kaki King! Kaki is amazing and I love her music (did you hear the score to "Into The Wild"?). I can't tell you how pleased I am to be opening up for her. We have plans to do a little special something together too...

Ticket info for these shows & the rest of my tour can be found on my performing page.

So what is one of my performances like?
In case you've never seen me live before, hopefully this review will give you an idea...

I bought my ticket for Kaki King's show at UCSD and then found out about you. I'm so excited you'll be performing there as well! You're amazing.

I saw you in Visalia, and you were amazing. I didn't know much about you going into the concert, but when you started playing, I loved every moment of it, especially when you played Exurgency and your cover of Beethoven's 7th. I loved it so much, I had to get your albums that were available. Hope you get to play here again, or at least close by!

Saw you play at the RadioLab show in NYC this week. You were absolutely incredible and everyone in the audience was stunned by how amazing your performance was. Congrats on all your success!

Zoe,
I saw you perform at the second Radiolab show and you literally blew my mind, to quote Jad, right out my face. I'm 16 and now in love with your music. Thank you so much for playing the cello and tweaking it like you do!! I hope you have the greatest of luck with your tour and that as many people hear your music as possible!

Your show at The Kate was amazing. I'm so happy my daughter & I took the trip from western MA down to the CT coast. Hope to see you in the New England area in the future. We certainly will come again. Wishing you happy cellofamily trails.

Rats. I recently discovered you only to learn too late last night that you were in LA ... right then. *sigh* Hopefully I'll catch you live at some point in the future when you once again grace the land of fake breasts and occasional freeway gunfire.

It was great watching you perform last night with Radiolab at the 5th Avenue Theater. I am in love with your music. So inspiring!

I too was recently introduced to your music and learned of my missed opportunity to see you here in Boston. Hope to hear of a return tour to the east coast soon.
