Jose Gonzalez kick's off a string of North American tour dates June 13 with an appearance at the 2008 Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival in Manchester, TN. Additional festival appearances include the Sled Island Festival, in Calgary on June 28, the Ottawa Blues Festival on July 3 and the Austin City Limits Festival on September 27 (full list of dates below).
Gonzalez released his sophomore album In Our Nature on Mute September 2007. He recently completed a Green tour of North America with Reverb Rock and digitally released the In Our Nature Remixes EP - featuring remixes from Todd Terje, Penchenga Nord, Beatfanatic, and Landberg & Skogehall - on Earth Day, April 22.
Gonzalez also released the digital single “Teardrop" featuring the exclusive b-side “Four Forks Ache" on May 6. ("Teardrop" is originally performed/recorded by Massive Attack.)
“For a musician whose appeal seems to be an even, responsible, enlightened serenity -- don't-wake-the-baby music -- he was nice and forceful, just alone with his instrument, his voice dry and his guitar laden with echo. Nylon-string guitars often produce a rounded sound, but with his economical, decisive, percussive strikes he made a sound like an ax splitting a log." -New York Times (Review of 3/11 show @ Highline Ballroom, New York, NY)
