Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, South of Here Tour, March 28
We love a good flex. So we couldn’t help but notice that when Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats‘ label team of Stax/Fantasy/Concord sent out a quick press release last month for new single “Call Me (Whatever You Like)”, it included some streaming links, a press photo, tour dates, and four select pull quotes. Those quotes didn’t come from press, radio, or blogs, they came from Howard Stern, Noah Kahan, Zach Bryan, and Robert Plant. That’s some heavy-hitter action. The spotlight track is the follow-up to previous single “Heartless,” listenable below, and both are included on the Americana band’s summer album South Of Here. Now Rateliff and the dudes have announced an extended run of tour dates for the record, and it wraps with a March 28 gig at MGM Music Hall at Fenway in Boston. “We have dreamt of playing shows like this for our entire career, to know they are actually happening feels bigger than any dream I could have had,” Rateliff says. “This tour wouldn’t be possible without you all, I feel your love so deeply. Thank you for your endless support, see you soon.” Now that’s a quote. Tickets go on sale on Friday (October 25) at 10 a.m. local time.
