Premier Concerts and Manic Presents:
JOSH RITTER
This is a special, intimate show with a stripped down trio version of Josh Ritter and his band, featuring Sam Kassirer on piano and Rich Hinman on pedal steel plus more. Here is a note from Josh about the event:
"All that I truly know about songs is this: the entire Universe can be contained within a single one. I’ve known that forever, maybe I came into the world with that knowledge. Likewise, there is nothing so infinitesimal that its magic cannot be glorified or elucidated in a song. I wrote the song “Orbital” in order to show that. Truth is shared by all things. The arch of an eyebrow recognizes the shadow cast by an eclipse.
For that matter, a loud-ass rock song can recognize and relate to even the quietest li’l lullaby.
These 'Great to Small, Small to Grand' shows will be about huge ideas and stories, packed into tiny grains of great (musical) insistence. Please join us!"
Ritter is a renowned singer, songwriter, musician, artist and best-selling author. One of today’s most thoughtful and prolific voices, he has released eleven studio albums including 2019’s widely acclaimed, Fever Breaks, of which NPR Music praised, “He remains a hydrant of ideas while embodying an endless capacity for empathy and indignation, often within a single song.”
In addition to his work as a musician, Ritter is also a national best-selling author, having released two novels to date: 2021’s The Great Glorious Goddamn of It All and 2011’s Bright’s Passage. Released to critical attention, Stephen King wrote in The New York Times Book Review that Bright’s Passage “shines with a compressed lyricism that recalls Ray Bradbury in his prime…This is the work of a gifted novelist.”
