(Rock Ridge) Tony Lucca and Josh Hoge will embark on a 22-city US tour through December that will also feature Matt Lowell. The tour will kickoff on November 28th at 3rd and Lindsley in Nashville, TN and end in Newport, KY at the Southgate House on December 22nd.

Tony Lucca is an innately gifted singer/songwriter with a resume any musician would find gratifying. He's written and self- produced five studio albums, three EPs, several live recordings and a popular DVD. He's won the L.A. Music Award for Best Male Singer/Songwriter. He's performed with notable artists including pop icons NSYNC, Marc Anthony and Joss Stone, as well as indie favorites Josh Kelley, Jason Mraz and Bob Schneider. He's galvanized an international following and has sold out premier venues coast-to-coast, including Joe's Pub in New York and the Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles.

Josh Hoge is from Nashville, TN and prides himself on the hard work and grass roots approach he takes to his music. Growing up exposed to all genres of music, on his debut CD "Everything She Was," he successfully mashes together pop/r&b/rock & a southern soul sound that is its own. He beats up the road touring 200 days a year and has toured with artists such as Marc Broussard, Elliott Yamin, Natasha Bedingfield, Matt Wertz and many more. He also has written songs for or been featured on albums by Blake Lewis, Lupe Fiasco, Backstreet Boys, Jesse McCartney, Matt Wertz, & Dave Barnes. His new CD, "This Holiday," was released on October 20th. It's a great mix of original & classic 90's soul/r&b style Christmas music.

Matt Lowell's combination of soulful rock sounds set his new "Second Storm" EP apart from the new generation of attention grabbing musicians. Second Storm was co-written and produced by Lowell and Crit Harmon, winner of 2008 Boston Music Awards producer of the year. After graduating Berklee College of Music, Matt toured in support of his first EP in 2008 at popular venues such as BB Kings, Blender Theatre, Highline Ballroom and Irving Plaza opening for well known acts as Eve6, Jeffrey Gaines, Martin Sexton, Marcy Playground, Val Emmich, Will Dailey, and others. Matt's unique blend of gripping lyrics, his magnetic live performances and guitar stylings have drawn comparisons to Dave Matthews, John Mayer and Paul Simon among many others.
