August 7, 2014 – Los Angeles, CA – Revered indie singer-songwriter, artist and activist Koji has announced a headlining acoustic tour with support from Allison Weiss, Chris Farren (of Fake Problems) and Lee Corey Oswald,
playing various dates. The tour will kick off in mid-September and
wrap in mid-October. Tickets are available for purchase from local
ticketing services.
For
those who’ve witnessed Andrew “Koji” Shiraki live, it’s a cathartic
experience. He exudes a comforting sense of vulnerability and honesty
that’s conveyed through an emotionally charged performance. His music
recalls the spirit of legends Bob Dylan and Woody Guthrie and more
recent artists Elliott Smith and Ryan Adams. It’s soulful and walks the
line between folk, punk and indie rock, conjuring as many heart
wrenching emotional moments as cheerful sing-alongs.

Koji’s
music cannot be defined by one particular genre or trend. That’s why
he’s been able to release splits with acts such as Into It. Over It and
La Dispute and shared the stage with assorted bands like Code Orange
Kids, The Deer Hunter, Major League and Geoff Rickly (Thursday). On his
2013 debut full-length, Crooked In My Mind, Koji showcases his
strength as a songwriter as he utilizes a variety of instrumentation and
styles that keep listeners emotionally engaged. Fans can expect to hear
several songs from that record as well as his record Some Small Way, which was recently reissued on limited edition 180 gram 12” vinyl, on the upcoming tour.
Also joining Koji on the tour will be pop-rock darling Allison Weiss who recently released her critically heralded EP Remember When,
Fake Problems’ singer and self-proclaimed “punk celebrity” Chris Farren
and rising Portland indie-punk band Lee Corey Oswald who just released
their new album Regards and will be performing as a full band on the fall tour.
Catch Koji, Weiss, Farren and Lee Corey Oswald on tour together this fall.
