Singer-songwriter Josh Ritter releases his new album, the cheekily-entitled The Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter, next Tuesday (August 21). He has a few shows planned around the record's release before heading off to Europe, where dude's apparently quite popular. He has gigs in Ireland and England that are already sold out. In late September, Ritter returns to these shores for a lengthy run of dates.
