Singer-songwriter Jose Gonzalez will embark on a green tour of North America in support of his latest album, 'In Our Nature,' this spring. The eco-friendly run begins on February 29 in Miami, FL.
Gonzalez is a noted vegetarian and was pursuing a PhD in biochemistry prior to his successful music career, so it's no surprise that the Swedish guitarist would set his sights on this environmentally conscious package. The tour, in partnership with the green-minded non-profit Reverb, will neutralize its carbon emissions by supporting renewable energy projects. Gonzalez's rider will include biodegradable catering products, and concert crew will be provided with re-usable water bottles throughout the tour.
A 50 cent ticket add on fee will go toward Reverb's environmental efforts, and fans will have the option to donate an addition 50 cents to NativeEnergy's CO2 Offset program when purchasing tickets through Ticketstoday. A full list of tour dates is on Jose-Gonzalez.com
