Straight Out of New Orleans, It’s Josh Ritter

Fresh on the heels of his eighth album, “Sermon on the Rocks” — recorded in New Orleans and one of his most freewheeling and rollicking to date — Josh Ritter, joined by special guest Elephant Revival, appears one night only at the Beacon Theatre, 2124 Broadway at W. 74th St. Feb. 20, 8 p.m. Tickets are $39.50- $45.50 at beacontheatre.com.
