JOSH RITTER: A Book Of Gold Thrown Open

Josh Ritter’s “A Book of Gold Thrown Open” tour presents music from across his entire career rather than concentrating on a single album. The performance spans material from his eleven studio albums, including his latest release, *I Believe in You, My Honeydew*, and reflects more than two decades of work as a singer, songwriter, musician, and artist.

Ritter is also a national best-selling novelist, with two published books: *Bright’s Passage* (2011) and *The Great Glorious Goddamn of It All* (2021). His songwriting has earned praise for its empathy, vivid imagery, and ambitious ideas, and his songs have been recorded or performed by artists including Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, and Bob Weir.
