Rachael Yamagata Announces Extensive Fall Tour

Acclaimed singer-songwriter Rachael Yamagata, "the troubadour of heartbreak," today announced an extensive run of U.S. live dates kicking off on November 15th at Electric Owl in Vancouver, BC and wrapping up on 3rd & Lindsley in Nashville, TN. She begins with a NYC September residency at the Rockwood Music Hall.

Touring in support of her 2011 independent release Chesapeake and a new fall EP of darker ballads, expect more intimate shows with strings and seated venues calling upon her old soul influences like Carole King, Joni Mitchell, Todd Rundgren and Elton John.

She’s garnered pop and indie status alike having toured with The Swell Season, Ray LaMontagne, Ryan Adams, Sara Bareilles, Liz Phair and Adam Cohen. Collaborations include songs with Jason Mraz, Mandy Moore, Dan Wilson and Katherine McPhee as well as appearances on the records of Bright Eyes, Dave Matthews and Rhett Miller to name a few.

Past highlights include opening solo for David Gray at Madison Square Garden, being the guest of Pete Townsend, sharing the stage at Carnegie Hall with R.E.M. and Patti Smith, performing for the President and hosting a tweet dialogue at the White House. Recently, she joined Steve Earle, jazz great Allen Toussaint and The Wood Brothers for a tribute show to Woody Guthrie.
