Dawes – who are presently in midst of an April run of shows, highlighted by sold-out dates at the legendary Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN on Wednesday. April 20^th and Chicago, IL’s historic Vic Theatre on Wednesday, April 27^th – will also top the bill at a number of upcoming summer festivals, including Mount Solon, VA’s Red Wing Roots Music Festival (Friday, July 8^th), Greenfield, MA’s Green River Festival (Saturday, July 9^th), and Buena Vista, CO’s Vertex (August 5^th-7^th).

As if all that weren’t enough, Dawes has also scheduled a series of additional dates, co-headlining Portland, ME’s State Theatre with Shakey Graves on Tuesday, July 12^th, and supporting Brandi Carlile and Old Crow Medicine Show at Canandaigua, NY’s Constellation Brands-Marvin Sands Performing Arts Center on Friday, July 22^nd and Columbia, MD’s famed Merriweather Post Pavilion on Saturday, July 23^rd.
