Singer-Songwriter Matt Andersen Announces Fall Headlining US Tour and shares new performance video of “Shoes.”
Following numerous sold-out shows in his native Canada, a spring tour with Tab Benoit, and a summer run with Devon Allman and Donavon Frankenreiter, dynamic singer/songwriter Matt Andersen is planning a fall U.S. headline tour, supporting his latest album, The Big Bottle of Joy.
From Andersen’s album The Big Bottle of Joy, he shares his video for “Shoes.” It opens with acoustic guitar and Andersen singing solo on this beautiful ballad, co-written by Andersen and Donovan Woods. Matt’s voice is gentle and soulful, as he invites his love to leave the dishes and roll up the rug to dance “with the shoes we got on.” With a voice like Andersen’s and his top-tier songwriting chops, it’s no wonder he’s one of the most beloved artists of the decade.

Released earlier this year, The Big Bottle of Joy is a collection of 12 exhilarating songs that pulse with blues, rock, Americana, and gospel energy. Andersen’s masterful vocals are at their best, striking the perfect balance of unbridled power and soulful quietness. The album has earned raves for the accomplished musician and lyricist.
Matt Andersen has earned every one of his fans through years of touring the globe. From small, dimly lit clubs to majestic theaters and major festivals, Andersen delivers soulful performances that run the gamut from intimate to wall-shaking. The bluesman has amassed over 26 million streams on Spotify and well over 26 million views on YouTube and has shared the stage and toured with Marcus King, Beth Hart, Marty Stuart, Greg Allman, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Randy Bachman, and many more. Andersen nabbed the 2013 and 2016 European Blues Awards for Best Solo/Acoustic Act and was the first ever Canadian to take home top honors in the solo category at the 2010 International Blues Challenge in Memphis. The Big Bottle of Joy is Andersen’s 10th studio album and follows 2022’s acclaimed House to House.
Andersen will perform solo on his upcoming fall dates. Fellow Canadian Adam Baldwin will open the shows. Baldwin’s latest album Concertos & Serenades has been widely praised and the single “Lighthouse in Little Lorraine” won the East Coast Music Award for Song of the Year.
