Tokyo Rosenthal UK Tour 2008

Americana, roots, and country with a little blues thrown in, sad but upbeat, unplugged but strong, strong vocals that join equally strong melodies, and let's not forget great stories being told by the tunes!

Headline Management are taking bookings for Tokyo Rosenthal's UK leg of his European Tour 2008 which takes his to venues right across the continent. He is in England from 13 - 20 April to lay the groundwork for a full-on tour in 2009.

In a career that started with the country rock boom, Rosenthal has honed his craft and tooled his "rootsy, Americana with a little blues thrown in" sound to perfection. His recent move to Chapel Hill, North Carolina has allowed him to team up with the "master of the electric bass", Alex Little on stage and famed producer and recording star Chris Stamey in the studio.

The UK promotional shows will comprise Toke, as he is most popularly known, and his bass player. PA equipment needs are minimial - just a PA and mic. They can do a short set or a longer one (as long as you keeps the beers flowing, we guess!).

To book Toke, whose new song for St Patrick's Day will be available soon, please contact astrid@headlinemanagement.co.uk
