Grassroots crossover sensation We Banjo 3 (WB3) is pleased to announce their winter and spring "Rise + Shine" tour dates. The tour's moniker is a nod to the band's recent Roots to Rise Live album release and their song "Shine." Rolling right out of 2019's highly successful "Roots To Rise" tour and the eponymous chart topping live record, Roots To Rise Live, We Banjo 3's "Rise + Shine" winter/spring 2020 U.S. tour commences in New York City on January 10th and hits 30 markets in the Northeast, Pacific Northwest, East Coast and Midwest before concluding in St. Louis at the end of March. See below for the full list of tour dates. Tickets available now at www.webanjo3.com.
Debuting in the U.S. in 2012, We Banjo 3 has since emerged as fast-rising touring darlings in the country that two of the members now call home. The Galway, Ireland, and Nashville-based quartet--comprised of two sets of brothers, Enda & Fergal Scahill and Martin & David Howley--continually push musical boundaries while maintaining an un-wavering devotion to the essential audience experience. WB3 seamlessly converge the shared and varied traditions of Americana, Bluegrass, and Celtic music with pop-sensible songcraft to create a truly unique and gratifying signature sound. Brilliantly commanded instruments--banjo, fiddle, mandolin, guitar, and percussion--effortlessly elevate lead singer David Howley's propulsive voice. Live on stage, their songs carry the listener along until, at the perfect moment, the band crescendos into catchy choruses with pitch perfect harmonies. We Banjo 3 deliver their music with such palpable rapport, stunning precision, and infectious energy, it's impossible to pigeonhole what kind of listener might suddenly consider themselves a WB3 fan. With recent stunning performances at such broad ranging festivals Merlefest, BottleRock, Summercamp, ROMP, Wintergrass and others, enthusiasts of almost every genre of music are taking notice. The band's fall 2019 tour hit 13 U.S. markets over 18 days, with most shows sold out in advance.
