Sweet Creeps & Outlaws Focus: Jonny Fritz

What's the biggest difference between Sweet Creeps & Outlaws and your garden variety tour? I'll have Josh Hedley as my wingman this time. I've never played Boogie Fest but people have been telling me about it for years so I'm very excited about that!

So which are you, a creep or an outlaw? Definitely not an outlaw. I've been adamant from the start to stay away from the outlaw thing. My most recent record is called Sweet Creep so I guess I'm a creep, but a sweet one.

Are you planning on showing off some new tunes this time 'round? Or hitting us with the classics? Yup, I'll be playing a lot from my new record along with some "classics".

Will you have a backing band or are you going pure solo? Just me and Josh Hedley. We've been playing together for seven years and this is our favourite way to tour. I'm excited to bring this set-up to Australia.

Can we expect to see some joint performances this tour? No, I'm not much for collaborating. But rest assured that we will do our thing and we do it very well. Aside from that, I don't think so.

What is it about Americana that drew you in? I'm not really an Americana guy. I was raised on country and Paul Simon. They're both very different. I love Lucinda Williams but I would love her in any language or form.
