Josh Ritter is a nationally treasured singer/songwriter, and we are really honored to host him here in our beautiful space for his inaugural visit to Lancaster! Over the course of his two-decade career as a musician, artist, and best-selling author, he’s earned a reputation for crafting thoughtful lyrics and weaving rich tapestries with his storytelling. This is a special, intimate show with a stripped down trio version of Josh Ritter and his band, featuring Mark Erelli and Zachariah Hickman. We can't wait for this - please come be part of Josh's welcome to Lancaster and get lost in the music with us! What to expect at the show: &gt;&gt; Doors will open at 2pm. The show will start at 3pm. &gt;&gt; Tickets are $40 in advance, and $45 at the door if not sold out (hint: this will likely sell out!).

Thank you for supporting great music! BIO: Josh Ritter is a renowned singer, songwriter, musician, artist and best-selling author. One of today’s most thoughtful and prolific voices, he has released eleven studio albums including 2019’s widely acclaimed, Fever Breaks, of which NPR Music praised, “He remains a hydrant of ideas while embodying an endless capacity for empathy and indignation, often within a single song.”
In addition to his work as a musician, Ritter is also a national best-selling author, having released two novels to date: 2021’s The Great Glorious Goddamn of It All and 2011’s Bright’s Passage. Released to critical attention, Stephen King wrote in The New York Times Book Review that Bright’s Passage “shines with a compressed lyricism that recalls Ray Bradbury in his prime…This is the work of a gifted novelist.”
“Josh Ritter remains at the top of his game two decades into a highlight-strewn career. He’d be forgiven for loosening his grip, but his hand has never felt surer.”
- NPR Music
“Harking back to Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and maybe a little Mark Knopfler, Mr. Ritter has always been a slinger of serious ideas and high-flown imagery.”
- The New York Times
“Mysterious, melancholy, melodic…and those are only the M’s.”
- Stephen King in Entertainment Weekly
