Josh performing at The Grammy Museum in June
Idaho born singer-songwriter Josh Ritter has been called one of the “10 Most Exciting Artists Now” by Entertainment Weekly and one of the “100 Best Living Songwriters” by Paste Magazine. His sixth studio album The Beast In It’s Tracks was released in March and debuted at #22 on the Billboard 200 and #8 on Billboard’s Top Rock Albums. In addition to this commercial success, the album continues to receive widespread critical acclaim— NPR Music calls it, “…gorgeous and glorious,” while Pitchfork praises, “Beast is contemplative and forgiving, a means of burying one relationship to commit to another, and Ritter nicely evokes the excitement and resignation of such a transition.” In celebration of the album Ritter & The Royal City Band are currently in the midst of a North American tour. Please join us in the Clive Davis Theater for a special discussion with Ritter about the tour, as well as the making of the album. After the discussion, moderated by GRAMMY Museum Executive Director Bob Santelli, Ritter will perform.
Doors open at 7:30 pm. American Express presale tickets are $20 and can be purchased online by American Express Card members starting Friday, May 17, 2013 at noon. Public onsale is Friday, May 31, 2013 at noon. American Express is the exclusive payment method for presale tickets. American Express pre-sale ticket purchasers will also receive a special gift. All proceeds benefit the GRAMMY Museum. For more information, please call (213.765.6803) or visit grammymuseum.org
