Leon Bridges to perform 3 nights at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium on newly announced tour

Texas singer-songwriter Leon Bridges has announced his upcoming tour, "The Leon Tour," which will include three dates at Nashville's historic Ryman Auditorium.

Known for songs "Texas Sun," "River" and "Coming Home," the soul singer will take the stage on Nov. 11, 12 and 13 with support from Latin instrumental band Hermanos Gutiérrez.

The tour announcement comes in anticipation of Bridges' new self-titled album, which will release on Oct. 4.

Bridges will make stops in North American cities, including Chicago, Toronto and New York before wrapping with a homecoming show in Fort Worth, Texas, alongside special guest Charlie Crockett.

“I wanted to bring the magic and connection that made this record to this tour, so I felt it was important to pick the right rooms to play. I'll be performing at intimate theaters this run with my incredible band," Bridges said in a news release.

"These are listening rooms — beautiful stages that truly showcase the music and allow me to get back to analog instrumentation. Plus, I’ve really missed playing guitar. I’ve got my brothers, Hermanos Gutiérrez, supporting me on tour as well," he said.

"Can’t wait to play this record for y’all live!"

Bridges most recently released single "Peaceful Place" on Aug. 8. His most recent album, "Gold-Diggers Sound," dropped in 2021.
