The Shipwreck From The Shore 10th Anniversary Celebration
Ten years after the release of his critically acclaimed debut, The Shipwreck From The Shore, Anthony D’Amato returns to the album that launched his career with an intimate performance at Berlin.
Inspired in part by time spent studying with the Pulitzer Prize-winning Irish poet Paul Muldoon, The Shipwreck From The Shore garnered rave reviews on both sides of the pond when it was released in 2014, with NPR inviting D’Amato for a Tiny Desk Concert and lauding that “he writes in the tradition of Bruce Springsteen or Josh Ritter," and Uncut proclaiming that his songwriting "echoes with early Bob Dylan."
D’Amato followed it up in 2016 with the Mike Mogis-produced Cold Snap, which earned him his first national TV appearance along with an Artist You Need To Know nod from Rolling Stone, who hailed his writing as “folk music raised on New Jersey grit.”
His latest collection, At First There Was Nothing, is out now to career-best reviews, with MOJO awarding it four stars and American Songwriter praising it as “a new masterpiece” that’s “moving, memorable, and extraordinarily affecting in every regard.” D’Amato, who also performs with the folk rock supergroup Fantastic Cat, appeared on NPR’s Weekend Edition and Mountain Stage in support of the record and toured extensively with Grammy-winner Keb’ Mo’ following its release.
