ASC favorite Josh Ritter returns with the release of his new recording, The Beast in Its Tracks. It is the sixth full-length album from Ritter, who has been named one of the “10 Most Exciting Artists Now” by Entertainment Weekly and among the “100 Best Living Songwriters” by Paste magazine. Of the record, the artist says, “In the year after my marriage ended, I realized that I had more new songs than I’d ever had at one time. Far from the grand, sweeping feel of the songs on So Runs the World Away (his 2010 release), these new songs felt like rocks in the shoe, hard little nuggets of whatever they were, be it spite, remorse, or happiness.” Ritter & the Royal City Band will appear at the ASC as part of their North American tour. Opening for the headliner will be The Milk Carton Kids, a contemporary folk duo praised for its delicate vocals and tight harmonies. Enjoy a beverage during this show served in an ASC theatre cup.
