FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Joe Jackson Comes to The Wilbur

WHAT: On Thursday, October 22nd, 2015, Joe Jackson is coming to The Wilbur in Boston’s historic Theatre District.

For this tour Jackson has reunited with longtime bassist Graham Maby, and added two distinguished and eclectic New York-based musicians, guitarist Teddy Kumpel and drummer Doug Yowell. “We’re all strong singers,” says Jackson, “and along with that and Teddy’s diversity and mastery of effects, and Doug’s use of electronic as well as live percussion, we’ll sound like a lot more than four people. This tour is going to be a lot of fun – I can’t wait.”

Fast Forward was produced and arranged by Jackson, and features four sets of four songs recorded in four different cities – New York, New Orleans, Berlin and Amsterdam – each with a different set of incredible supporting musicians.
