As a local music fan, you may have asked yourself, “Why hasn’t Dawes moved to Nashville yet?” The Los Angeles based band celebrated their highly acclaimed record, We’re All Gonna Die, with an official release part at The Basement East this fall, and that followed a sizzling headlining set at Live On The Green over the summer and a headlining gig at The Ryman last spring. Dawes are gearing up for a massive 50 date tour in the spring of 2017, and they have announced two nights at the Ryman Auditorium on Apr. 28 & 29. The tour, billed as “An Evening With Dawes,” will feature two sets of new songs from the record, as well as fan favorites. Tickets for Friday Apr. 28 and Saturday Apr. 29 go on sale on Friday Nov. 18 at 10 a.m., but you can get the jump on Thursday Nov. 17 from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. using the pre-sale code “TEQUILA.”
If you can’t wait that long to get your Dawes fix, tune into Jimmy Kimmel Live tonight (11/14) to see them perform, or you can head below to see their recent performance on Prarie Home Companion, along with the 2017 tour dates.
