On Tour: Uncle Earl Announces Fall Dates
Burlington, MA – Fresh off a string of high-profile festival appearances including Bonnaroo, Grey Fox, Chicago Folk and Roots and Winnipeg, Uncle Earl will perform their infectious “old time for our times” (as they like to call it) in cities across the east and west coasts (and everywhere in between) this August and September. In June, the all ‘g’earl’ string band received a nomination for New and Emerging Artist from the Americana Music Association and shot their first-ever music video with famed director Tom Krueger (U2, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan). The video is currently in post-production, with more details to be announced soon.
Uncle EarlUncle Earl’s new album Waterloo, Tennessee reigned over the Americana music chart for 16 weeks (including 14 weeks in the Top 25). The “red hot twangers” (HARP) were also recently featured in MOJO, Relix, No Depression, Pollstar (cover story) and will soon be featured in Bluegrass Unlimited (August issue). Producer John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin) performed with Uncle Earl at Bonnaroo and caused quite a stir, resulting in Waterloo, Tennessee being a top-seller at the festival through retail vendor Newbury Comics. Upcoming tour dates are listed below. Additional dates are also available at www.rounder.com and www.uncleearl.net.
