Kat Edmonson Confirms North American Summer, Fall Tour Dates

Kat Edmonson plays summer festivals and confirms North American tour dates this Fall in support of her critically acclaimed album The Big|Brave Picture, available now on Sony Music Masterworks. Please see full tour dates below. Tickets are on sale now for select dates and go on sale for remaining dates this week at www.katedmonson.com.

Shortly after performing "Rainy Day Woman" and "All The Way" on "CBS This Morning: Saturday," which lead to their highest rated viewership on the program since 2006, Edmonson performed on the "Late Show with David Letterman" with nine-time Grammy award-winners Ray Benson & Asleep at the Wheel. Watch the performance HERE.

The Big|Brave Picture debuted at #1 on the Billboard Heatseekers Albums Chart, #1 on Contemporary Jazz Chart and #2 on the Total Jazz Chart. The Big|Brave Picture is Edmonson's label debut and was recorded with Grammy-nominated producer Mitchell Froom (Paul McCartney) in his Los Angeles studio. This album follows her 2012 release, Way Down Low, which The New York Times hailed as "fresh as a spring bouquet" and The Boston Globe called "one of the greatest vocal albums I've ever heard." The record was featured on several major year-end "Best of 2012" lists including Downbeat Magazine, WNYC Soundcheck's "Best Live Performances" and Daytrotter's "Best Sessions of 2012." Edmonson was featured on NPR an impressive five times that same year.

Texas native Edmonson grew up in Houston and sang in the local club scene in Austin for several years before self-releasing Take To The Sky in 2009. A musical kinship developed from performing with fellow Texan Lyle Lovett led to a high-profile duet of the Christmas classic "Baby, It's Cold Outside," which the pair performed together on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno."

Sony Music Masterworks comprises Masterworks, Sony Classical, OKeh, Portrait, Masterworks Broadway and Flying Buddha imprints. For email updates and information, visit www.SonyMasterworks.com.
