“PETER FRAMPTON RAW, AN ACOUSTIC TOUR” DATES SET FOR OCTOBER
ACOUSTIC CLASSICS RELEASED TO CRITICAL ACCALIM
After an overwhelming response from audiences nationwide, Peter Frampton will resume “Peter Frampton Raw, An Acoustic Tour” with more dates this October. Gordon Kennedy, Frampton’s longtime collaborator and co-producer of his Grammy Award-winning album Fingerprints, will join him again for the October run alongside Frampton’s son, singer and guitarist Julian Frampton. The tour follows a summer of full-band headlining dates as well as stops with Lynyrd Skynyrd and Gregg Allman. See below for details or visit http://www.frampton.com/live/.
The new dates continue to support the release of Frampton’s latest album, Acoustic Classics, which is receiving widespread critical acclaim from The New Yorker, Wall Street Journal, Huffington Post, Billboard and more. Guitar Player raves, “Frampton’s playing flows fluently throughout and the variety of exquisite tones keeps the journey interesting.” Frampton also performed on “Conan,” appeared on SiriusXM’s “The Howard Stern Show” and “Artist Confidential,” and was featured on NPR’s “World Cafe” and “Tiny Desk Concert.”
On Acoustic Classics, Frampton brings us stripped-down versions of his hits including “Baby, I Love Your Way,” “Lines On My Face,” “Do You Feel Like I Do,” “Show Me The Way” and more. Acoustic Classics includes one new song, “All Down to Me,” which was co-written by Gordon Kennedy. “All Down to Me” is the only track on the record featuring a guest musician.
Peter Frampton remains one of the most celebrated artists and guitarists in rock history. At 16, he was lead singer and guitarist for British band the Herd. At 18, he co-founded one of the first super groups, seminal rock act Humble Pie. His session work includes collaborations with such legendary artists as
George Harrison, Harry Nilsson, David Bowie, Jerry Lee Lewis, Ringo Starr, John Entwistle and many others. His fifth solo album, the electrifying Frampton Comes Alive!, is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year and remains one of the top-selling live records of all time.
