After two fun shows in Hawaii, Jack and the band kick off the last leg of theirworld tour today in support of their sixth studio album, From Here To Now To You. This tour has brought Jack and the band to some amazing venues throughout the US, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, South America, Europe, Japan, and most recently two hometown shows at the Waikiki Shell in Hawaii! The final leg of the tour starts tonight when Jack and the band take the stage at Colorado’s iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre. From there the band will visit more of their favorite outdoor venues along the west coast including the Gorge Amphitheatre, Greek Theaters in Berkeley and Los Angeles, and concluding with two shows at the Santa Barbara Bowl.

Unfortunately, we just got news that Michael Kiwanuka has to cancel his opening slot on these upcoming west coast dates. Michael is dealing with some health issues and his doctor has advised him to rest at home. We will miss him on the road but wish him a quick and speedy recovery.

Speaking of quick and speedy, we’ve been able to line up new openers from a group of our Brushfire friends for the tour. ALO will be joining Jack today at Red Rocks Amphitheatre, as well as Vancouver and the last show of the tour in Santa Barbara. Matt Costa will open on August 27th at the Greek in LA, and Bahamas will be opening all other dates on the west coast swing. Jack recently talked with KCRW in Los Angeles and shared with them why he's a big fan of Bahamas, check it out here. Bahamas new album Bahamas is Afie is out this Tuesday but you can hear it over at SPIN here.

All shows are sold out, except for The Gorge (where Amos Lee is still on the lineup) and UC San Diego, where a few tickets remain. Act fast and get your tickets here. We hope to see you at one of the shows!
