The Shadowboxers will join their mentor Justin Timberlake for the first leg of his highly-anticipated Man of the Woods Tour as the opening act on over 30 arena dates across the country. Tickets for the tour are on sale now and VIP information is coming soon, with packages going on sale March 2.
Discovered by Timberlake and signed to his Villa 40 artist development company, Nashville-based Shadowboxer members Scott Tyler, Matt Lipkins and Adam Hoffman experienced an almost-instantaneous musical compatibility when they first started writing together in college, forging a cohesive sound based on a shared reverence for the harmonies of the Bee Gees, CSN and Earth, Wind & Fire, and the rhythmic pop funk of Prince, D’Angelo and Michael Jackson.
Initially creating buzz with their YouTube cover of Timberlake’s “Pusher Love Girl,” the three have since racked up over 4 million streams of original material on Spotify and Apple Music to date and growing. Spending time writing in the studio with both Timberlake and Israeli songwriter/producer K-Kov, The Shadowboxers released the single “HOT DAMN!” in September 2017, and have since performed on national shows such as TODAY and The Talk as well as completed a set of national headlining tour dates.
The band is preparing for the release of their first EP, due out this Spring.
