"I wanted to bring the magic and connection that made this record to this tour, so I felt it was important to pick the right rooms to play," Bridges said. "I'll be performing at intimate theaters this run with my incredible band. These are listening rooms—beautiful stages that truly showcase the music and allow me to get back to analog instrumentation. Plus, I’ve really missed playing guitar. I’ve got my brothers, Hermanos Gutiérrez, supporting me on tour as well. The tour starts in Austin and ends with a truly epic night in Fort Worth—aka Panther City—joined by my friend and Texas legend, Charley Crockett. Can’t wait to play this record for y’all live! Hope to see you out there."
"Leon" is available to pre-order and pre-save online here. The release marks Leon’s first album in three years and features the new single "Peaceful Place." Listen to the track online here.
