NEW WEST COAST DATES ANNOUNCED
Michael Gira |
Late Winter 2012, Swans mainman Michael Gira will be undertaking a short U.S. tour of the West Coast following a more extensive European tour. He’ll be performing
selected songs from Swans, Angels of Light, and his solo releases. He’ll be releasing a digital-only compilation from his past solo releases and selling physical copies at his show.
“In 2001 I started making and releasing handmade limited edition CDs available only through younggodrecords.com or at live shows. The recordings have been done with one stereo mic on my desk, no overdubs, just a casual performance in my office at home. Most of the songs presented are versions I recorded immediately after writing the song – they’ve also served as demos I can give to the musicians with whom I’m working to develop the material.
The recordings were not (and are not) meant for general public consumption, just for dedicated followers and supporters of the music. these special packages have been instrumental in helping to fund studio recordings by Angels of Light, and now also Swans – serving both as collectible items and as fundraisers for the recording projects. Since these titles are all permanently out of print now, I’ve decided to make a digital collection of what I view as the highlights available.”

THIS SHOULD MAKE GRUMPY OL RAY DAVIES SWOON
One of JamBases favorite new bands from 2011, AgesandAges, launches a new monthly cover tune series with us this morning, putting their sweet, subtle minds to a gem from The Kinks catalog. Here is the concept, as explained by AgesandAges Tim Perry:
Whilst working on our second album, we thought it would be a pretty fun idea to record and release one cover a month for every month of this year. For all you math nerds out there, that’s a total of twelve songs. Also, we were hoping to accompany each with a video, shot by our good friend, Jaclyn Campanaro. The songs we’ll be working on vary far and wide, but all are dear to our hearts. We’re doing this because it’s fun and we like music. We’re doing this because the record release process can take a while and we wanted something a little more immediately gratifying; something we could give away for free right after we’re done making it. And we’re doing this because we identify with these songs and we want to express them with our own voice. This, to us, seems pretty fulfilling. Some people might like this sort of thing, others might think it’s sacrilege, and still others won’t give a shit either way. We on the other hand, are pretty excited about the next twelve months. And if you like it too, well then that’s what we call a bonus!
New covers will debut at the end of each month in 2012, and we cant wait to see what they explore next!
