Anthony D'Amato

TOUR DIARY is back! I fell wayyyyy behind with such a hectic schedule out here, but I'm catching up with some of my favorite pictures from the road in several installments over the next week while I enjoy a little recovery time. Check out shots from Sneek, Groningen, Zeehondencentrum Pieterburen, and more alongside shows with American Aquarium and Luke Winslow-King: www.anthonydamatomusic.com/tour-diary/2018/11/13/tour-diary-power-outtages-and-baby-seals Once I've caught my breath, another 3 weeks of shows across Europe start Nov 29 with the Light of Day Foundation charity tour. Grab tickets and help support the cause!

“The Oyster and The Pearl” is Brookdale Public Radio, 90.5 The NIGHT’s Song of the Week! Tune in to catch it in extra rotation, or pick up a FREE DOWNLOAD this week only here: http://bit.ly/2DjY2pC

Had to drive many hours out of the way but it was worth it to spend my day off in Cinque Terre and watch the sun rise over Manarola

Spent a night in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland, where 72 waterfalls plunge into the valley over the thousand foot cliffs that tower above on both sides. Next show is Saturday night in Verona, Italy!

Last night in Bern was dreamy! Thanks to everybody who packed it out and made my first time so special. Up next, two more debuts in Piacenza and Verona, Italy on Nov 8 & 10. Come on out or send your Italian friends! Dubliners Irish Pub Cohen Verona

Played three shows in the last 36 hours (and drove 1400km just to play them). Enjoying a much needed day off in Cologne right now before I head back to the UK with American Aquarium. Here’s where you can catch us: Oct 30 - Bristol @ The Louisiana Oct 31 - Manchester @ Night & Day Nov 1 - London @ The Borderline

New TOUR DIARY with photos from a bike ride through a Dutch national park, a visit to a German castle, and a dark slice of history in Munster: www.anthonydamatomusic.com/tour-diary/netherlands-germany

Paid a visit to Schloss Lembeck before last night's show in Recklinghausen, DE. Starting up dates with American Aquarium tonight at Poppodium Iduna in Drachten, NL!

Finished filming a 2 Meter Sessies in Amsterdam today just in time for the sunset. Headed to Kulturrampe Krefeld tomorrow for the first German show of the tour!

Shows in Dublin, Liverpool, Oxford, and Billericay, plus national parks, a tetanus shot, and the world’s greatest personal taxidermy collection… www.anthonydamatomusic.com/tour-diary/ireland-wales

Kickin’ it at Bill Shakespeare’s house in Stratford Upon Avon before tonight’s gig in Oxford. Playing The Isis Farmhouse on the banks of the Thames (no not that Isis)

Dublin! You filled the room and my heart last night at @Whelan’s. What a memorable first headline gig there. I feel extra lucky to do what I do on nights like that. Don’t know what’s going on in this pic but I rarely do. I’ll be back in town Nov 29 with the Light of Day charity tour 🍻 📷: @niall.hayes81

Whoa!! The Irish Times says my Dublin headline debut at Whelan's Tuesday night is one of the week's Must-See shows. Plus Coolio! "D’Amato’s tough, roots-inspired tunes...snagged – all too inevitably – comparisons with early Dylan/Springsteen. Perhaps a more pertinent reference point would be Josh Ritter, whose narrative tales of love, joy and woe fit D’Amato’s outlook to a tee." https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/music/kylie-and-the-bunnymen-this-week-s-must-see-rock-and-pop-gigs-1.3652938

The sun came out in Scotland (weird!), which led to some of my favorite pictures there yet! Plus I played a very special show in Glasgow, and then headed south to start my English dates. Check it all out in the new TOUR DIARY: www.anthonydamatomusic.com/tour-diary/herecomesthesun

TOUR DIARY is back! I took a trip up north to the Scottish Highlands ahead of Friday night's headline show at the The Glad Cafe in Glasgow. Check out some photos (you might recognize this train from Harry Potter), and then come help me dry off at the Glasgow Americana Festival tomorrow night! www.anthonydamatomusic.com/tour-diary/highland-highlights

Leaving New York....50+ shows over 10 weeks starts now. Got my guitar and my camera. Hoping to come back with new friends and new songs. Take care of America while I’m gone!

Thrilled to announce I'll be joining Father John Misty, Shakey Graves, Kurt Vile, Neko Case, and my old pals The Mastersons & Aaron Lee Tasjan among others at the TakeRoot festival in Grongingen, NL, Nov 3! Tickets are on-sale now: http://www.takeroot.nl/

"My Sweet Lord" with My Favorite People. When the band kicks in it sure makes my heart happy.... Thanks so much to Scott from Red Wanting Blue, Don DiLego, Alex Francis, Amanda Cross, Brian Dunne, and Kelley swindall for joining the band (Derek Cruz, Randy Schrager, JT Curtis, Ben Gallina, and Lily & Madeleine) for a big goofy finale at Mercury Lounge.
