Dawson slates headlining tour

Starting Nov. 1 in Columbia, S.C., the Stray Off Course tour will feature yet-to-be-announced special guests and continue through the middle of December .

Dawson recently released the official music video for "Asking For A Friend," the second single from his "Dark Horse" debut disc. The song describes a character longing to repair a damaged relationship, but lacking the courage to ask for forgiveness. Using a heavily stylized, noir set and camera trickery, the video is set in a surreal "bar" where each representation of a "friend" is played by Dawson himself.

Tour dates are:
Nov. 1 Columbia, SC
Nov. 2 Savannah, GA
Nov. 3 Rome, GA
Nov. 9 Detroit, MI
Nov. 10 Buffalo, NY
Dec. 7 Arlington, TX
Dec. 8 Baton Rouge, LA
Dec. 15 Pocolo, OK
