Face To Face Will Play "Ignorance Is Bliss” In Full on Spring Acoustic Tour. Face To Face singer/guitarist Trever Keith and bassist/singer Scott Shiflett tour the U.S. this spring, performing songs from their 1999 album "Ignorance is Bliss" as an acoustic duo in intimate venues. The tour is split up into a western leg in April, Midwest in May, and East Coast in June. See below for a list of confirmed dates.
"Ignorance is Bliss," the band's fourth album, was a departure from their classic SoCal punk rock sound, and generated very mixed reactions from fans at that time. Now, 13 years later, the album has become something of a cult classic.
Aside from a brief U.S. tour following the album's release, Face To Face has never included songs from "Ignorance is Bliss" in their performances. Because the emotion and tone of the music from "Ignorance is Bliss" are a departure from their trademark high-energy live performances, Keith had the idea to take the songs tour in an intimate acoustic setting. After Keith asked fans on the band's Facebook page about the idea, the response was overwhelming.

The 4onthefloor deliver stompin' blues at an alarming intensity. 4onthefloor was born in the bottom of a bourbon bottle with the idea that it’s effing time to have some fun and make amazing music as well. Audiences immediately took to the infectious driving feel of not one, but four bass drums pulsing to the beat of the songs. The music is inspired by the gutsy stomp of the Delta Blues and the hoe-downs from America’s past and present. While 4onthefloor prides themselves on their original songs, they also love putting their signature stomp on covers from the likes of Wilco to Tom Jones. This makes 4onthefloor one of the most entertaining bands on the Midwest music scene today, and the world tomorrow.
