(NASHVILLE, TN) -- Prolific singer/songwriter and author Andrew Peterson recently announced his plans for a spring tour that will include friends and special guests Jill Phillips, Andrew Gullahorn, Ben Shive, and others for his Resurrection Letters Tour. The tour will kick off on March 7th in Taylors, SC. A complete list of cities and dates can be found at www.andrew-peterson.com.

Resurrection Letters Tour will resemble Peterson’s widely popular Behold The Lamb of God Tour. The first half of the show will be in-the-round, in which Peterson and guests will perform songs from their various albums. The second half is a special time during which Peterson will play songs from his new album Resurrection Letters and Jill Phillips from her album Kingdom Come, along with traditional hymns to usher in the Easter season and celebrate the resurrection of Christ. 

Peterson has long been known for his intricate songwriting and transparent candor on stage, often drawing comparisons to predecessor Rich Mullins. While signed to Watershed/Essential Records from 1999 to early 2004, Peterson recorded three national releases including his award-winning Carried Along, which featured the top ten radio single, “Nothing to Say.” Peterson wrote and produced the popular Christmas play and musical Behold the Lamb of God: The True Tale of the Coming of the Christ, and the album by the same name, which received the 2004 Best Album of the Year, World Christian Music’s Editors Choice Award. Behold The Lamb of God Tour just completed its 8th year with multiple shows being sold out. His latest album Resurrection Letters will be released in the Spring of 2008. 

Peterson will also release his first novel in March entitled On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness through WaterBrook Press. Full of fast-paced storytelling, fanciful songs and poems, hilarious asides, and characters rich in heart, courage, and smarts (two boys and a girl), On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness, launches a highly-anticipated series of fantasy novels that readers of all ages will treasure, enjoy reading aloud, and use in stirring book group discussion. Peterson also released his first children’s book entitled The Ballad of Matthew's Begats in October 2007 through Thomas Nelson.
