Matisyahu – Fall Tour and Festival of Light Celebration

Matisyahu, everyone’s favorite reggae/hip-hop superstar, has announced his plans to wrap up 2012! Along with the infamous Dub Trio, Matisyahu will tour the nation, including several special shows, fans should get excited about!

After a very successful forty-plus date national summer tour with the Dirty Heads, Matisyahu is heading back out on tour! In continued support of
his new album Spark Seeker, Matisyahu will headline a thirty-four date U.S. tour starting this Wednesday. Kicking off in Fort Collins, Colorado,
the group will perform coast to coast, hitting twenty-one states in the course of two months, alongside local openers.

With the Fall season comes Halloween, and in honor the happy-go-lucky holiday, Matisyahu will join up with reggae rock favorites, SOJA for a special co-headlining show! Lucky fans around Charlottesville, Virginia will
get to attend the HallowGeen Bash. A Wednesday night show, opening with Matisyahu, and closing with SOJA. Let’s hope for a few on stage collaborations as a nice Halloween treat!

Matisyahu is also expanding his annual Chanukah celebration Festival of Light this year, adding the run of the celebratory tour’s first performance on the West Coast! The Festival of Light celebration begins at San Francisco’s Nob Hill Music Center for an Acoustic Evening With Matisyahu, which then features additional acoustic performances in Stroudsburg, PA and the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY. The Dub Trio will join Matisyahu for Festival of Light performances in Philadelphia, Washington, DC and New York City!
