Los Angeles, CA-November 12th, 2012---Grammy nominated recording artist Matisyahu returns to the road in early 2013 for a limited run of special "Acoustic Evening With Matisyahu" performances.  Tickets are available for pre-sale in most markets on November 14th and are on sale to the general public on November 16th.  Matisyahu will be releasing "Spark Seeker: The Acoustic EP" on January 15th via digital retailers; a five track EP will be available via Amazon and a seven track EP will be available via iTunes.  He will be releasing additional acoustic bonus tracks via his official website, www.matisyahuworld.com<http://www.matisyahuworld.com/>.

The "Acoustic Evening with Matisyahu" will provide fans with a unique, in-depth look at the creation and background of Matisyahu's most recent album, Spark Seeker, as well as his entire catalogue of music, including hit songs "One Day", "King Without A Crown", and fan favorite "Jerusalem".  It will provide fans an opportunity to ask the artist questions, as well as an intimate setting for Matisyahu to tell stories of his artistic and spiritual journey.

In light of the recent storms in the Northeast and the aftermath caused by Hurricane Sandy, Matisyahu will be donating $1 from every ticket sold during the pre-sale to Hurricane Sandy relief.  To pre-order tickets, visit www.matisyahuworld.com/tour<http://www.matisyahuworld.com/tour>.
