Bob Evans, aka Jebediah frontman Kevin Mitchell, must be getting antsy because he’s hitting the road once more. After the release of his solo LP Car Boot Sale, and following a co-headline tour alongside Josh Pyke in late 2016, Bob Evans will soon be setting off on the Lonesome Highways Tour.
Kicking off in Canberra on April 20, Bob Evans will be taking his tunes to capital cities and regional towns across April, May and June. As a taste of what to expect, Bob Evans has today released a live acoustic video of ‘My Matilda’, a track that features on an EP of unreleased material, Zeroes To Heroes, available exclusively to tour ticket-holders.
“I have so many songs that have almost made it on to records in the past but have just missed out for one reason or another, ” he explains. “I’ve always wanted to share them with people and I thought this would just be a good way to say thank you to the people who support me.”
Bob Evans will also soon announce an all-female cast of main supports across each leg of the tour.
“These are all going to be intimate shows so it will be very up close and personal,” says Evans. “I’ll be playing songs from across all of my records, a few covers too… I’ll take requests and then screw them up. We’ll all be firm friends by the end of the night.”
