Dear everyone

Things are speeding up at a rate I nearly can’t keep up with, but I do want to share it all with you :-))) There will be more from me this week, but for now let’s concentrate on something very dear to my heart: the live shows!

REWIRE LIVE PREMIERE OF LIBRES ANTES DEL FINAL THIS WEEK 11th and 12th APRIL
I am so grateful and excited to be playing the new album this Saturday (Concordia at 10h10pm) and Sunday (Theater aan het Spui -Zaal II at 5pm) at one of the very best European festivals, @rewirefestival (my 2nd time at the festival + I also played once at Prewire!).

MADRID DATE 20th JUNE AT INFINITO DELICIAS + PORTLAND ANNOUNCEMENT + MORE TICKET LINKS!
In other live news: I am delighted to announce a show in Madrid on 20th June at @infinitodelicias . Tickets not available yet, but at least you can write down the date!

We are also finally able to announce the venue for my Portland show on 7th June, presented by Beacon Sound: Friends of Noise at the Offbeat!

On 26th April, @casa.montjuic in Barcelona is close to being sold out, but you can still get tickets for the second show of that night at Laut @lautbarcelona next door, both presented by @foggyhexbcn .
Tickets for the @icalondon show with @katenvy on 10th June are now available.
Individual tickets (as opposed to festival passes) are now on sale too for my NYC show on 1st May at @publicrecordsnyc for @bangonacan Long Play festival.

ALL TICKETS AVAILABLE VIA MY SONGKICK or MY THRILL JOCKEY ARTIST PAGE

The new album is super challenging to play live because of the multitude of settings and patching I use on the @moogsynthesizers Matriarch, both within the songs themselves and and in the physical  transition from one song to the next. This makes it a really exciting endeavour mentally and physically, and I feel so connected to the material emotionally that I just can’t wait to  experience the physicality of hearing it with a live sound in a good room.
For the first time of my career, I am also having the luxury of not carrying gear: the Matriarch is so bulky and heavy that the decision kind of imposed itself, I just could not carry it myself, and for a variety of reasons also don’t want to go the route of having somebody travelling and doing it for me, so it will be rented or borrowed everywhere I’m playing on this tour. This comes with possible risks (if rented, a faulty Matriarch could always happen), but to be honest the prospect of travelling with just my patchsheets and cables makes me see this tour in a totally different light. If you have carried half of your weight in gear in airports around the world for more than 20 years, you’ll know what I mean.
I hope you have been enjoying the album and I hope to see you soon on this tour!
