The Nightwatchman Cometh As New Tom Morello Tour Leg AnnouncedÂ
From “Rage Against the Machine” to accoustic music, “The Nightwatchman” Tom Morello’s latest musical contribution firmly establishes him as a folk musician in the Woodie Guthrie’s tradition.Â
 New York, NY (rushprnews) May 17,2007 -The Nightwatchman, Tom Morello, will continue his patrol on a new leg of tour dates in June. Morello is offering free admission to Audiophiles, members of the Audioslave fan club, on all tour dates.
Meanwhile, the video for Morello’s charging anthem “The Road I Must Travel” premiered last week on Michael Moore’s website. Of the song, Morello comments, “It is definitely meant to be sung en masse, whether it’s in the concert hall, the coffeehouse or the union hall.” Click here to watch the video.
‘One Man Revolution,’ out this week on Epic Records, is earning excellent notice for the first-time singer:
“Tom Morello rages unplugged a la Springsteen’s Nebraska.”
– Andy Greene, Rolling Stone
“Rich vocals and hook-filled tunes.”
– Clark Collis, Entertainment Weekly
“A revelation”
– Dan Epstein, Guitar World Acoustic
“13 harrowing cuts”
– Joe Bosso, Guitar World
“Rich baritone and minimalist but moving songs.”
– Jim DeRogatis, Chicago Sun-Times
“One Man Revolution finds Morello channeling the likes of Woody Guthrie and Nebraska-era Springsteen, delivering a batch of often acoustic, neo-protestant anthems.”
– Taylor Mason, CMJ
“He wanted to prove to himself that he could move an audience with only his voice, an acoustic guitar and his songs. He succeeded.”
– Chris Neal, Performing Songwriter
