David Bazan: fall tour, spring album

Posted by Flick in News on 07 27th, 2007 | no responses |

David Bazan David Bazan will be touring through the months of September, the latter half of October, and the first half of November. This will be his first stint of dates since signing with Barsuk Records and re-releasing Fewer Moving Parts. Casiotones for the Painfully Alone will be supporting Bazan for 14 shows, and All Smiles will open for 19 performances.

In Barsuk Record’s latest update, they wrote that Bazan’s tour, “will be on the road prior to his new full-length which is going to drop in early 2008.”

TW Walsh’s solo band, The Soft Drugs, will be performing with Bazan on October 27 in Cambridge, MA. Walsh, who made up the other half of Pedro the Lion with David Bazan, is writing the music for a movie called All for Melissa.

“I’ve had the opportunity to work on music for a couple films in the last 2 years. Currently, I’m scoring a movie produced in Oahu, Hawaii by the production company Guerilla Dojo. All for Melissa was written and directed by Gerard Elmore and will be hitting the festival circuit later this year.”

David Bazan covered Radiohead’s Let Down on OKX, the ten year anniversary of Radiohead’s The Bends. Stereogum, a leading music blog, released all of the songs as a free download, which included John Vanderslice, Cold War Kids, Vampire Weekend, My Brightest Diamond, and others. Every song on The Bend is covered by an artist, making for a very interesting compilation.
