Matisyahu Seeking New Fans On 311 Tour!!



Matisyahu admits that when his manager first suggested a summer tour opening for 311, the Brooklyn-based reggae rapper wasn't sure it was such a good idea. "My manager said, 'No, you don't understand, they have 10,000 to 15,000 that they draw in every market across America,'" he tells Billboard.com. "Supposedly they have a huge draw, even bigger than mine. We don't have a record out or a single out on the radio, so we can do a headlining tour and play in front of our same fans, or we can go out with a band that has fans that probably would dig my music that might not know of me and try to get in front of some new people.

With a new band lineup, the 27-year-old devoutly Jewish artist is looking forward to reinterpreting much of his catalog with new musicianship on the upcoming touring leg, which begins in early June with a handful of dates in Europe, Hawaii and Alaska before joining 311 until the end of August.Read More.
