The Hard Core Troubadours Tour, in its 3rd season, has become one of the most successful DIY tours with no label support.
Independent singer-songwriters tour the eastern seaboard and the Midwest. The tour will hit 10 US cities starting in September 2005. The Hard Core Troubadours book their own shows, handle their own publicity and hook up a network of like-minded artists interested in DIY music. Although they have distinctive styles and influences, they come together for one goal -- to hit the asphalt. The Hard Core Troubadours was a collective started by Mike Borgia and Ben Ratliff with the goal of enabling independent and proactive songwriters and musicians to book their own shows, handle their own publicity and hit the road.
