Matisyahu on the road again

MATISYAHU PERFORMS WITH MICHAEL FRANTI, THE FLAMING LIPS, GOMEZ AND MORE

ON NEW SUMMER TOUR DATES

2006 has been a year of notable collaborations for Matisyahu. Earlier this summer he was tapped by Dave Matthews to open several of his U.S. tour dates, and by Sting to open a performance in Tel Aviv, Israel. Starting August 8, Matisyahu will headline a new string of dates featuring a diverse lineup of acts including Michael Franti & Spearhead, Keller Williams, The Polyphonic Spree, and Gomez, as well as a co-headlining bill with The Flaming Lips September 16 in TX. Completing his sweep of the festival circuit, he will also stop at the Austin City Limits music festival on Sept. 17, joining a lineup that includes Tom Petty, Van Morrison, Los Lonely Boys, Gnarls Barkley, The Raconteurs, and Damian Marley. The drum trio Street Drum Corps will join Matisyahu on every date, playing nightly outside the venue prior to show time and in between sets.
