As this news site's Louisville corespondent, I feel it's my duty to report on all things Kentucky, especially the stories that go beyond the sterotypical associations (usually bourbon and horses, which, I may add, should never be mixed). When we last left Daniel Martin Moore, we reported how he is the first artist in Sub Pop's history to be signed by way of an unsolicited demo. So it is with great pride to report on Moore's first big tour, visiting parts of the Midwest and Ol' Dixie, bringing with him his whispy, bucolic folk that's ready to take its place next to heavy hitters Iron & Wine and Bonnie "Prince" Billy (also a Kentuckian).
Moore kicks off the tour with two all-ages shows in Louisville: on WFPK's The Live Lunch (which you can stream here) and later that evening at the best record store on the planet, Ear X-Tacy. For the rest of the tour, Moore snags Louisville-based cellist Ben Sollee for the opening spot.
