Photo: Jason Shane Josh Ritter & The Royal City Band swung through The Fox last Wednesday night as part of their 39-date North American tour in support of Ritter's latest release, The Beast In Its Tracks . The show was a relatively intimate and subdued affair compared to other gigs at Oakland's crown jewel venue, with seats brought in to fill the normally general admission lower level, and the upper half of the balcony behind curtains. But the mellower setup of the auditorium did not detract [...]
