Sallie Ford announces West Coast tour dates; videos!


Sallie Ford announces new tour dates for the West Coast run of her North American tour beginning in December with stops in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Vancouver.  Below is a full list of tour dates with the official launch on October 10th at the Doug Fir Lounge in Portland, OR. 
 
Ford’s new album, Slap Back, will be released on October 14th, but fans can pre-order the album now on iTunes and the Vanguard Records Store.  Slap Back, produced by Chris Funk (Decemberists, Black Prairie, Red Fang), not only marks Sallie's debut on Vanguard Records but introduces her all new line-up - Anita Lee Elliot (Viva Voce & Blue Giant) on bass, Amanda Spring (Point Juncture, WA) on drums & Cristina Cano (Albatross & Siren & the Sea) on keyboards. 

The first single, “Coulda Been”, has been garnering airplay at radio across the country.  About “Coulda Been”, Sallie says: "The song is about games that people play in romantic relationships and how you always want what you can't have.  I wrote the lyrics first and was inspired to write music when I was playing along with computerized drum beats in order to find inspiration."
