Jagermeister Presents Josh Thompson's Change is Comin' Tour

NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y., Jan. 31, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Jagermeister, a brand as deeply rooted in music as it is in mythology and lore, is proud to announce the Jagermeister Presents Change is Comin' Tour featuring RCA singer/songwriter Josh Thompson. The tour will kick off February 3rd in Charlotte, North Carolina and will hit over 20 cities across the nation with Chris Cavanaugh as the opening act.

Jagermeister, the #1 selling imported liqueur in the United States, has a long history of supporting bands, both from a local level to national amphitheater acts. The brand has spent almost two decades developing artists and has seen many go from obscurity to the top of their fields. "Jagermeister is thrilled to be working with Josh Thompson again.  He served as the supporting act for both our Dierks Bentley and Eric Church Jagermeister Music Tours and we are happy to now support him as he takes to the road as a headliner," said Bill Henderson, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Advertising for Sidney Frank Importing Company, Inc.

Josh Thompson added, "I have a lot of experience with Jager on and off stage. I am happy to be part of the Jagermeister family and am looking forward to having a great time out there."

Thompson recently released Comin' Around as the lead single from his second studio album, CHANGE, due out this summer. Thompson teamed up with Kendell Marvel and Rodney Clawson to pen the song, which offers an introspective look at how growing up can sometimes draw people back to the places and things they once turned away from. CHANGE will follow up Thompson's album WAY OUT HERE – which debuted in the Top 10 on Billboard's Top Country Albums Chart and earned praise from countless critics, including NPR's Fresh Air, Billboard and People. He is also a respected songwriter with several outside cuts under his belt including Church Pew or Bar Stool from Jason Aldean's album MY KINDA PARTY and A Man Don't Have to Die on Brad Paisley's THIS IS COUNTRY MUSIC.
