austin lucas and the choir
Earlier this year, I began playing music with Austin Lucas and Jason Hedges (of Company Man, and many other bands) and together we formed “Austin Lucas and the Choir.” We’ve played a couple of times at Flaco’s and at a few other smallish places. This Saturday, though, we’re debuting our sound at the Atlantic– our first not-smallish show. We will have the pleasure of sharing the stage with our friends in Greenland is Melting and The Enablers.
That show will also serve as an informal kick-off to our first tour together beginning March 3rd in Atlanta. While we are still in the process of booking some shows, the confirmed dates are as follows:
- 2/20: Gainesville, FL @ The Atlantic
- 3/3: Atlanta, GA @ The Earl
- 3/4: Asheville, NC @ Static Age Records
- 3/5: Richmond, VA — House Show
- 3/6: Durham, NC @ The Pinhook
- 3/8: Mt. Pleasant, SC @ The Village Tavern
- 3/10: Valdosta, GA– House Show
- 3/11: Orlando, FL @ Will’s Pub
- 3/12-3/14: St. Augustine @ Harvest of Hope Fest
- 3/16: Houston, TX– House Show
- 3/17-3/21: Austin, TX @ TBA
- 3/24: Little Rock, AR @ White Water Tavern
We’re getting pretty excited for this, so come out and see us wherever you can! I’ll post the remaining dates as soon as I get them.
Thanks for reading, and come see the band that brought the Friends and I together, Umoja Orchestra, this Friday (2/19) at 1215 NW 5th Avenue for a Haiti relief benefit show with Micah Shalom and the Babylonians! HOUSE PARTY!!!!
LOVE,
