SUMMARY:Alan Doyle
DESCRIPTION:Welcome Home Tour \nAlan Doyle— actor\, producer\, best-selling author\, and best-known as lead singer for Newfoundland’s beloved Great Big Sea these past 20+ years— hardly needs an introduction. With five solo albums under his belt\, Doyle has been touring the world with his ace six-piece band for the last decade. In late 2014\, Doyle released his best-selling memoir Where I Belong\, followed by A Newfoundlander In Canada released in October 2017\, and All Together now released in November 2020. Amidst these projects\, Doyle found time to write music for and appear on CBC’s Republic of Doyle\, guest on CBC’s Murdoch Mysteries\, a role in 2014’s Winter’s Tale and 2010’s Robin Hood. With his 2022 live album “Here\, Tonight” and a recent JUNO nomination for his 2021 album “Back to the Harbour”\, Doyle chalks up a lot of where he is right now to luck. “I’m the luckiest guy I’ve ever even heard of\,” he says. “This was all I ever wanted\, a life in the music business\, singing concerts.” \nDoyle hails from Petty Harbour\, NL\, and formed Great Big Sea in 1993 with Sean McCann\, Bob Hallett\, and Darrell Power\, in which they fused traditional Newfoundland music with their own pop sensibilities. Their nine albums\, double-disc hits retrospective\, and two DVD releases have all been declared Gold or Platinum and have sold a combined 1.2 million copies in Canada.

SUMMARY:Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway
DESCRIPTION:Grammy winner Molly Tuttle brings her band to The Majestic Theatre with their new album\, City of Gold. One of the most compelling new voices in the roots music world\, Molly Tuttle is a virtuosic multi-instrumentalist and singer/songwriter with a lifelong love of bluegrass\, a genre the Northern California-bred artist first discovered thanks to her father (a music teacher and multi-instrumentalist) and grandfather (a banjo player whose Illinois farm she visited often throughout her childhood). \nCity of Gold\,  the follow-up to 2022’s Crooked Tree—a widely lauded LP that won the Grammy Award for Best Bluegrass Album\, with Tuttle earning a Best New Artist nomination—the Northern California-raised musician’s fourth full-length album brings those narratives to a resplendent form of bluegrass rooted in her virtuosic guitar playing. Like Crooked Tree\, whose accolades also include an International Folk Music Award for Album of the Year\, City of Gold\, is co-produced with bluegrass legend Jerry Douglas\, showcasing the extraordinary musicianship that made Tuttle the first woman ever named Guitar Player of the Year by the International Bluegrass Music Association. But this time around\, the Nashville-based singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist chose to record with her live band for the first time—a move that lends a potent new energy to her exquisitely crafted sound. “When I was a kid we took a field trip to Coloma\, California\, to learn about the gold rush\,” says Tuttle in revealing the inspiration behind City of Gold. “Just like gold fever\, music has always captivated me and driven me to great lengths to explore its depths.” Noting that City of Gold “celebrates the music of my heart\, the land where I grew up\, and the stories I heard along the way\,” Tuttle found her band essential to every aspect of the LP.

SUMMARY:The Decemberists
DESCRIPTION:For over 20 years\, The Decemberists have been one of the most original\, daring\, and thrilling American rock bands. Founded in the year 2000\, The Decemberists’ distinctive brand of hyper-literate folk-rock set them apart from the start with the release of their debut EP 5 Songs in 2001. Since then\, the band has released nine full-length albums that are unbound by genre and highly ambitious\, ranging from Americana-leaning storytelling epics to elements of 70’s prog and hard rock. \nNow the enduring indie band is back with their first new music in six years\, “Burial Ground.” Already a fan-favorite after being debuted live last year\, their latest single takes the overt fatalism of 2018’s I’ll Be Your Girl and infuses it with the jangle-pop of The Dentists and dreamy harmonies of The Beach Boys (performed with an assist from The Shins’ James Mercer). “‘Burial Ground’ is in that time-honored popsong tradition\, a paean to hanging out in graveyards\,” says songwriter Colin Meloy. “The melody hook came to me in a dream and I hummed it into my phone on waking. Most dream-songs are bad; this was the exception.” \nThe Decemberists will be on tour with more new music to come!
