Carolina Chocolate Drops Extend US Tour, Add Several Dates with Dave Matthews Band
Carolina Chocolate Drops, whose new album, Leaving Eden, is due out on Nonesuch in just under two weeks, on February 28, are touring the United States, performing songs from the new record, their Nonesuch debut album, Genuine Negro Jig, and more. The band has just added a number of new tour dates to their schedule this spring, including several headlining shows in the Midwest and down South, as well as five shows supporting the Dave Matthews Band. Carolina Chocolate Drops join Matthews this May and June in Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and two in Massachusetts. (Last summer, the Chocolate Drops performed at Matthews' festival, the Dave Matthew Band Caravan.) Ticket presales are available to DMB fans starting this morning via his site.
See below for all of the Carolina Chocolate Drops' currently scheduled tour dates; for additional information and ticket links, head to nonesuch.com/on-tour.
To reserve a copy of Leaving Eden, head to the Nonesuch Store, where pre-orders include an instant download of the track “Country Girl."
