Rostam has announced his first North American tour, beginning at the Earl in Atlanta on January 29, 2018. The tour, featuring music from Rostam's recently released debut album, Half-Light, continues through February, with stops in Nashville, DC, Chicago, Seattle, and more, culminating at El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles on February 24. A ticket pre-sale for Rostam's Spotify followers begins Wednesday, October 18; general on-sale begins Friday, October 20. See below for all of the US dates; for additional details, including his 2017 European tour dates, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour. Also below is Rostam's performance of the album's title track from a recent visit to KEXP in Seattle.
"If you've never seen me perform, it's always with strings—usually a string quartet—live percussion, and video projections," Rostam says. "I'm so psyched to see you out there on the road in January, February, and throughout 2018."
Half-Light, which features fifteen songs that were written, produced, and performed by Rostam in his Los Angeles home studio, was released on Nonesuch in September to rave reviews. "The album glows with romantic turmoil and raw nostalgia," says New York magazine's Vulture. "There is certainly a bit of pain in [Rostam's] remarkably compelling voice. But it's also so airy and whispery in tone, so sincere ... that it sounds like he's feeling the entire spectrum of emotions, and feeling them hard."
Rostam Batmanglij is known for his work in Vampire Weekend (producing each of their three albums); Discovery, his album with Hamilton Leithauser; and recently, his production work with Haim, Charli XCX, Frank Ocean, and more.
To pick up a copy of Half-Light, head to your local music shop, iTunes, Amazon, or the Nonesuch Store, where CD and vinyl orders include a download of the complete album at checkout, and listen to the album on Apple Music and Spotify. There's also a limited-edition yellow vinyl version of the album available exclusively at Vinyl Me Please.

Rhiannon Giddens and Justin Robinson have unveiled “Marching Jaybird,” an instrumental track from their forthcoming album of North Carolina fiddle and banjo music, What Did the Blackbird Say to the Crow, due April 18. Revisiting this tune recorded by Etta Baker, one of their musical heroes and a key inspiration for making this new album, and recording it at Baker’s Morganton, NC, home "was a magical moment for Justin and me," Giddens says. "Walking into her house, which is frozen in time, looking just like it did when she was alive, very much reminded us of women in our families; sitting in her living room and recording this piece learned from her playing was pretty profound." You can watch the video here. Giddens has also announced a number of new tour dates, including the Hollywood Bowl, and shared more details about her Biscuits & Banjos festival, which takes place in Durham, NC, April 25–27.
Guitarist and composer Yasmin Williams, who continues her own headline tour later this month, will join St. Paul and the Broken Bones and The Wood Brothers as their special guest on six dates in the US Midwest in July. The shows start at Rock the Ruins in Indianapolis on July 10 and include stops in Cleveland, Interlochen, Fort Wayne, St. Louis, and Kansas City. General on-sale begins this Friday.
