Singer-songwriter Jake Smith, who writes, records and performs under the alias The White Buffalo, will be co-headlining Irving Plaza with Chuck Ragan on April 18 before heading to Asbury Park to play the legendary Stone Pony on April 19. The folk artist released his third studio album, Shadows, Greys & Evil Ways, on Unison Music Group in September, which marks a new direction for the band, as it was written to be a concept album telling the tragic story of a man returning from war and the issues he faces home. The White Buffalo will also play at Philly’s Theatre Of Living Arts on April 23.
