Anthony D'Amato embarks on most extensive European tour yet
01-10-2018Rolling Stone is featuring American songwriter Anthony D’Amato’s new single, The Oyster and The Pearl, as the lead track in their roundup of the Best Country and Americana Songs of the Week, calling it a “folk pop epic” and “an instant winner.”
The song, which made its radio debut on BBC Scotland, previews a new album recorded in the mountains of Utah with artist/producer Joshua James and lands just ahead of D’Amato’s most extensive European tour yet - starting this week. The run includes both headline and festival performances, as well as support dates with celebrated roots rockers American Aquarium.
Anthony D’Amato’s most recent full-length, Cold Snap includes contributions from Conor Oberst and members of Bright Eyes, The Faint, and Cursive. The album earned praise everywhere from the BBC to the Associated Press and garnered D’Amato’s national television debut in America.
The album built off the success of D'Amato's 2014 New West Records debut, The Shipwreck From The Shore. That record generated raves on both sides of the pond, with NPR lauding that D’Amato “writes in the tradition of Bruce Springsteen or Josh Ritter," and Uncutproclaiming that his songwriting "echoes with early Bob Dylan."
