Jose Gonzalez announces North American tour

And he'll play a string of festivals this summer

Jose Gonzalez has announced a North American tour kicking off June 13 at the Bonnaroo Music And Arts Festival in Tennessee.

The singer will continue to support 2007’s ‘In Our Nature’ on the jaunt, which also includes slots at the Sled Island Festival in Calgary, the Ottawa Blues Festival and Austin City Limits.

Gonzalez recently completed his environmentally-friendly tour of North America during which he and his crew used biodegradable catering products and reusable water bottles. The band also neutralised emissions from venue energy use, ground transportation, flights and hotel accommodations by supporting clean renewable energy projects.
