Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter, and musician Gregory Alan Isakov will embark on a special headline tour next year, featuring performances by Isakov and his band with full symphony orchestras in each city. Newly confirmed stops include Nashville’s Schermerhorn Symphony Center, Chicago’s Auditorium Theatre, Asheville’s Thomas Wolfe Auditorium, Charleston’s Gaillard Center, Atlanta’s Atlanta Symphony Hall (two nights), and Los Angeles’ Walt Disney Concert Hall, among others.
Tickets for these dates will go on sale this Friday, December 6, at 10:00 a.m. local time. Full details can be found at www.gregoryalanisakov.com/tour.
The shows will include symphonic arrangements of favorites from Isakov’s six full-length studio albums, including his most recent releases: Appaloosa Bones, Evening Machines, and Gregory Alan Isakov with the Colorado Symphony. The orchestral versions of these songs were arranged by Tom Hagerman (DeVotchKa) and Jay Clifford (Jump, Little Children). The performances will be conducted by two renowned international conductors: Christopher Dragon (Nashville, Chicago, Greensboro, Asheville, Atlanta, Los Angeles) and Morihiko Nakahara (Charleston and Tysons).
In addition to the symphony dates, Isakov will also perform several sold-out shows early next year, including a stop at New York’s Madison Square Garden supporting Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats and two nights headlining Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
Beloved by his devoted community of fans and critics alike, Isakov has garnered over 1 billion streams to date and averages 7 million monthly Spotify listeners. Of his most recent record, Appaloosa Bones, the Associated Press praised, “His new songs are relentlessly majestic, a kind of musical morphine,” while Paste declared, “he’s continuing to make expertly tooled music…it’s reliably beautiful and starkly self-possessed throughout.” Additionally, Isakov recently collaborated on songs with Noah Kahan, Shovels & Rope, and Jeremiah Fraites (of The Lumineers).
Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and raised in Philadelphia, Isakov now calls Colorado home. When he isn’t on the road, he spends much of his time writing and recording songs in his barn studio, as well as running Starling Farm (his farm in Boulder County), which provides produce to CSA members, local restaurants, and Community Food Share (a Boulder County food bank).
