Young recently issued the following update regarding the duo's plans:
"We're in the process of scheduling a rather unique and exciting U.S. tour for June-July. We'll let the music do the talking via the video and song links enclosed at the end of this letter, along with our EPK.The concept is simple: Sherri and I are touring as duo with 2 vocals, acoustic and electric guitar with live looping, etc. - it's an acoustic-electric show with a sexy rock/funk attitude and performance, plus the element of risk because of the live guitar looping which is cool for both performer and audience. You'll see some examples in the songs enclosed.
We're traveling from Las Vegas towards the east-coast, hitting many mid-west cites in between. My radio show, Music Without Boundaries will be broadcasting live and worldwide along the tour route, sharing the experience with our listeners.
With our radio technology, we can broadcast to a worldwide audience from the tour bus, from our hotel room, backstage, even on stage or any area that has internet or wi-fi. So, the entire tour experience is going to be really different and interactive, literally bringing folks from around the globe on the road with us. We'll be sharing the road trip on the radio - old fashioned radio done a new fashioned way - and all the interesting people and places we encounter along the way become part of the story.
The way our broadcast network, Spreaker works, the second we sign on live, our MW/OB radio players simultaneously pop up on Facebook, twitter, Google+ and other social media. This makes the show super easy to find, listen and share.
Another exciting aspect of this tour is that because we're playing in cities we know well and are tapping into our local friend and fan base in your areas, we are already communicating with possible local/regional artists that would be a fit to share the bill as opener. This gave us a great idea: For the climax of our second set, we'll bring up a respected local drummer and bassist from each town to play three pre-rehearsed, classic songs from our set. The extra added excitement of having the local musicians jamming with us should bring some real curiosity and spectacle to the proceedings!"
Stay tuned for updates.
