John Paul White is will be hitting the road this fall in North America. The tour is in support of his latest album The Hurting Kind and recently kicked off in Newport, KY. The tour will then continue to make its way to Indianapolis, Chicago, Salt Lake City, and Seattle before its conclusion Nov. 3 in Dallas, TX. Fellow band Shovels & Rope will be playing select shows along the west coast. Tickets for the outing will go on sale Friday, July 19 at 10 am local time. See the full itinerary below.
The Hurting Kind received much critical acclaim with Uncut saying “White has found his sweet spot in the downhome elegance of Nashville’s golden age.” White collaborated with writers Whisperin’ Bill Anderson and Bobby Braddock. Braddock stated in a press release that “Coming out of each and every one of these situations, I got a resounding thumbs-up that I was on that right track, I didn’t need anybody else’s approval after that.” White continues saying. The new album serves as the follow up to his 2016 album Beulah, with Rolling Stone saying “The strength of White’s songwriting lies in the masterful balance he strikes between character and confession.” The Hurting Kind is White’s third solo album after departing from the Grammy-nominated duo.
