Amos Lee - Transmissions Tour

American singer songwriter, Amos Lee, returns to the Playhouse stage after two sold out shows. Lee seamlessly traverses genres, featuring elements of rock, folk, and soul in his music. On his eleventh studio album, Transmissions, Lee continues to expand his sonic range while sharpening his closely observed lyrics that squarely address death, aging, and love. Transmissions is Lee’s first release of original music on his own label, Hoagiemouth Records.

For the new project, Lee craved a return to an old-school style of recording, working with his longtime band in a studio in rural Marlboro, New York that was built by drummer Lee Falco and his dad out of reclaimed wood from an old church (“it’s exactly what you’d think a studio in upstate New York should be,” notes Lee). Playing live on the floor for long hours, in close quarters, they were able to capture the album’s twelve songs in less than a week.

Amos Lee has toured with Adele, Norah Jones, and The Avett Brothers, among many more, released ten studio albums and two live albums, and collaborated with folk greats including Zac Brown Band and Willie Nelson.
