press release: Kevin Morby returns to the road in spring 2020 in support of Oh My God, his “dizzying and fantastic” (Paste) album released in 2019 via Dead Oceans. This run of shows will feature Morby’s full band and consists of cities not yet visited for Oh My God.
PRAISE FOR OH MY GOD
“Morby’s most ambitious work to date, a culmination of the thematic and stylistic elements he has explored for the better part of a decade—wonder and anxiety, humor and despair, minimalist folk and gospel-infused rock—but here now sublimated and fully realized.” - Playboy
“This is easily Mr. Morby’s best record, and will be among 2019’s best indie rock offerings” - Wall Street Journal
“a secular rock record consumed by religious imagery, a pop art exploration of deep anxiety, and his most interesting work yet.” - The FADER
“In using religious language, ideas and images in Oh My God, Kevin Morby has made his own version of a holy text... only a songwriter as soft and deft as Kevin Morby could have pulled it off so charmingly.” - The 405
“[Oh My God] explores his fascination with the structure of religion, and the way it works in human lives, with more exuberance than ever before.” - Aquarium Drunkard
“an artistic achievement for Morby, [Oh My God] commendably establishes him as a mainstay in modern music.” - Under The Radar
