Sara Watkins has launched the fall leg of her tour as special guest on Jackson Browne's Acoustic Tour of the United States. The tour, which began this summer with shows throughout July and August, picked up again with a concert at West Virginia University in Morgantown, West Virginia, on Monday night and continues through November 18 with a concert in Northridge, California, to benefit 88.5 KCSN FM. Watkins' opening sets feature songs from her new album, Sun Midnight Sun, earlier this year on Nonesuch Records, and her self-titled Nonesuch debut album.

Jackson Browne makes a special guest appearance on Sun Midnight Sun, contributing harmony vocals on a number of track, as do Fiona Apple, Taylor Goldsmith (Dawes), Benmont Tench, and Sean Watkins. The album, produced by Blake Mills, includes songs written by Watkins, several collaborations with Mills, songs by Dan Wilson and Willie Nelson, and a rendition of The Everly Brothers classic “You’re the One I Love,” a duet with Fiona Apple. To pick up a copy, head to the Nonesuch Store, where CD and vinyl orders include instant downloads of the album at checkout.
