Mandolin Orange – Ryman Auditorium (Nashville)


Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz, the “slow-burning, steadily rising duo [that] exudes gentle elegance” (NPR), add a second full-band headlining show after selling out night one. They’ve sold out every one of their headlining US performances in 2018, and the tender acoustics of new album Tides Of A Teardrop (Yep Roc) sounds heavier and more expansive on stage.
