MATT NATHANSON ANNOUNCES SUMMER TOUR SUPPORTING MAROON 5 & TRAIN!

 

 

 

New album Modern Love out June 21st on Vanguard Records 

 

First single "Faster" Top Ten at Triple A Radio and Most Added at Hot AC


 

On Tour NOW with Sugarland! 

 

Matt Nathanson has announced he will be opening for Maroon 5 and Train
on the second leg of their co-headlining North American tour this
summer. The string of dates, kicking off August 28th in Louisville, KY,
will follow the June 21st release of Matt's new album, Modern Love. The
new album's first single "Faster" is already making waves at radio,
currently in the top ten at Triple A and Most Added at Hot AC. Fans can
catch Matt on tour now with Sugarland.

 

Modern Love is the follow up to 2007's Some Mad Hope, Nathanson's
break-through album boasting platinum-selling singles "Come On Get
Higher" and "Car Crash." With eleven of the twelve tracks licensed for
film and television, the power of Nathanson's songwriting and the
connection his music establishes with listeners is undeniable. The
success of Some Mad Hope and "Come On Get Higher" gave Nathanson a sense
of accomplishment and confidence that allowed him to take a new approach
to Modern Love, taking bigger risks and diving deeper into his vast
array of musical influences. The writing process started by exploring
songs that were more physical and groove-based, drawing from influences
such as Depeche Mode, ACDC and Talking Heads. By the time the eleven
songs, written and produced with his longtime collaborator Mark
Weinberg, were completed, Nathanson was marveling at the new territory
they had covered. From the "Depeche Mode groove" in "Mercy (Less
Drowning, More Land)" to the ecstatic opening track and first single
"Faster," to the soaring "Run," which features Jennifer Nettles and
Kristian Bush, Modern Love is a luminous and bold departure.
