John Reuben Coming to Your Town

Posted by Kevan Breitinger Feb 2, 2007

And just to keep it interesting, Reuben also plans to hit the world-wide web with a series of videos on both the YouTube.com and MySpace.com sites.

Reuben will kick off his 40-city Word Of Mouth tour run in his hometown of Columbus, OH and zig-zag across the nation for the next two months. With his recent 2005 The Boy VS The Cynic, Reuben toured extensively as well, including a 30–city nationwide stint with Pillar and Thousand Foot Crutch, and dates with Superchick and Sanctus Real.

Next week the first video in a special series will be unveiled online at both YouTube.com and Reuben’s MySpace.com site (www.myspace.com/johnreuben ) . The “mockumentary” styled video series follow last year’s 9-minute “pilot” featuring an exaggerated John Reuben alter-ego. The clip, produced by Reuben and his brother and recalling classic satires like “Waiting For Guffman”, found a large audience quickly, amassing over 175,000 views on Youtube.com and setting the stage for these upcoming video clips. Fans can anticipate 17 video clips beginning next week through the end of May, with one releasing online each week.

Word Of Mouth is already creating a buzz including being featured last week on NPR’s “All Things Considered” online music show.

With five prior albums already to his credit and sales of over 200,000 albums, John Reuben has garnered attention of new and long-time fans everywhere.
