Brian Fallon has unveiled plans for an epic North American headline tour in 2022. The 37-date trek – featuring full backing from his longtime live band, The Howling Weather – gets underway January 11, 2022 at Portland, ME’s State Theatre and then travels through an eagerly awaited homecoming show set for March 4, 2022 at the famed Count Basie Center for the Arts in Red Bank, NJ. Special guests include The Dirty Nil (January 11-February 16), Worriers (January 11-March 4), and Hurry (February 18-March 4).
Fan presale begins tomorrow, October 27 at 10am local with password “fallon22” while local presales follow on Thursday, October 28. All remaining tickets will be released to the general public on Friday, October 29 at 10am local. For complete details, please visit www.brianfallon.net/tour.
Separately, Fallon’s new holiday album, Night Divine, is due out Friday, November 5 via Lesser Known Records/Thirty Tigers; pre-orders are available now. Produced and recorded by Fallon, the album comprises powerful new renditions of classic hymns and spirituals including the recently premiered “Virgin Mary Had One Son” and “Amazing Grace,” both available now at all DSPs and streaming services.
LISTEN TO “VIRGIN MARY HAD ONE SON”
Hailed by Kerrang! as “beautifully haunting,” “Amazing Grace” debuted last month while “Virgin Mary Had One Son” first heralded Night Divine earlier this fall and was met by immediate praise:
“Fallon keeps ‘Virgin Mary Had One Son’ close to its folk-standard origins, adding some shaken percussion and low, sustained piano notes to compliment his acoustic guitar arpeggios. Fallon sings with a mixture of awe and solemnity that fits a retelling of the Christian savior’s birth.”
– ROLLING STONE
“Combining a rippling guitar effect, his raspy, soothing voice, Fallon renders a beautifully modern, alternative twist to the Christian tune. Famously sung by the Staple Singers,
Fallon respectfully and originally performs the song.”
– SPIN
Next week will also see Fallon presenting a very special edition of his Live From Home livestream concerts, the last of the in-home series as he finally gets ready to return to in-person performance. Fallon will mark the occasion with songs and stories from last year’s acclaimed solo album, Local Honey, as well as The Gaslight Anthem's 2007 now-classic debut album, Sink Or Swim, and the 2008 EP, Señor and the Queen. Live From Home is set for November 4 at 8pm EST/5pm PST, with replays available for 72 hours afterward. For tickets, please visit noonchorus.com/brian-fallon.
Fallon will end the year with a sold-out, five-night holiday residency at Garwood, NJ’s Crossroads, set for December 4, 16, 17, 18, and 23. In addition, next spring will see Fallon and The Howling Weather crossing the Atlantic for a wide-ranging tour of the UK and Europe, including already sold-out shows in Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Scotland, and England; support throughout comes from special guests Chris Farren and Jesse Malin.
