Infamous Stringdusters Announce 2019 Tour and Completion of New Album
By: Tori Hartshorn Oct. 23, 2018
Grammy-winning bluegrass quintet THE INFAMOUS STRINGDUSTERS have announced their first tour dates of 2019, with a West Coast run kicking off January 16 in Los Angeles. The group will wind their way up to the northwest and wrap January 27 in Bellingham, WA. Their friends in Midnight North are opening on select dates.
THE STRINGDUSTERS--Andy Hall (dobro), Andy Falco (guitar), Chris Pandolfi (banjo), Jeremy Garrett (fiddle), and Travis Book (upright bass)-have been on the road in the U.S. essentially non-stop since the 2017 release of their seventh studio album, Laws Of Gravity, which won the "Best Bluegrass Album" at the Grammy Awards this past February. They also released Laws Of Gravity: Live! and a new collection of covers, Undercover Vol. 2.
Of the upcoming tour, Andy Falco says, "Very much looking forward to hitting the west side of the country in January! With our good friends of Midnight North opening the shows, there are sure to be some fun and unique collaboration." Andy Hall adds, "We're starting 2019 off by heading west with our dear friends Midnight North! We've had the pleasure of collaborating with these guys on a number of occasions, and can't wait to bring all the sounds to our west coast people. There's something in the wind, and it's winter Dusters tour!"
In addition to tackling their extensive touring schedule, THE STRINGDUSTERS recently teased fans by revealing that they've completed recording of their next full-length studio album, their ninth overall. In a posting on Instagram, the group shared "Our new album is done!! Such an incredible last 8 days in the studio. We got deep into a bunch of new music and we are really excited about the way things turned out. Huge thanks to our amazing engineer/co-producer Billy Hume and to everyone here at Mighty Fine Productions in Denver."
