Lissie Announces January Tour Dates

.
Today Lissie announced a new run of January tour dates, beginning January 7th at the 9:30 Club in Washington, DC, and concluding January 23rd at the Henry Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles, CA. All dates will be in support of City and Colour except for January 13th at the Triple Rock Social Club in Minneapolis, MN, which will be her own headlining show.

Lissie's EP Why You Runnin', released November 10th by Fat Possum, has been receiving glowing coverage from the press. In addition to a nod for her song "Little Lovin'" in Marie Claire's 'Need to Download' column (January 2010), London's Sunday Times recently profiled her in a 'Breaking Act' piece and raved, "...Lissie Maurus has the voice, the songs, and the image - freckle-faced barefoot prairie girl transported to an LA canyon in 1972, cooing like an angel and strumming an acoustic guitar - to be huge in 2010."

Last month, Lissie wrapped up a tour with Ray LaMontagne and two shows with A.A. Bondy, in addition to her own headlining shows at the Mercury Lounge in New York, NY, and the Bootleg Theater in Los Angeles, CA. She also performed on KCRW's influential program 'Morning Becomes Eclectic' and taped NPR's 'World Caf� Live,' which will air January 5th, 2010.
