Today, Mandolin Orange — whose acclaimed new album Tides Of A Teardrop topped Billboard’s Heatseekers, Folk / Americana, Current Country and Bluegrass Charts — announce their biggest US tour to date, with shows at Brooklyn Steel in NYC, the Lincoln Theater in Washington DC, and lots more. Full dates below.
Watch a behind-the-scenes feature of the band making their Grand Ole Opry debut:
Mandolin Orange were recently deemed “one of North Carolina’s most significant bands” by NPR Music and just last month performed for Governor Roy Cooper at the North Carolina Executive Mansion as part of Come Hear NC. They’ve “helped redefine American roots music for a younger generation” (Washington Post) while amassing a following of over 1.5 million Spotify listeners.
Listen to “The Wolves,” one of NPR Music’s Best Songs of 2019 (So Far), here:
These dates are an extension of Mandolin Orange’s huge 2019, which included over 45 sold-out dates in both the US and Europe as well as a headlining slot at Pickathon. Mandolin Orange just taped a Tiny Desk with NPR Music (out later this summer) and are well on their way to selling out two headlining shows at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. Keep an eye out for more news soon.
