Lee Ranaldo from Sonic Youth is doing up a small tour in support of his new album Between The Times & The Tides, consisting mostly of shows in May, although there's a few dates at the end of April that include a show with Thurston Moore. Lee's bringing Alan Licht, Steve Shelley and Irwin Menken as his backing band and be opening for M. Ward on most of the dates.
Guest appearances on the album include Nels Cline, John Medeski, Jim O’Rourke and Bob Bert, but they won't be on tour ... maybe you could watch out for them to show up on certain shows on the tour? Check out an MP3 of the song “Off The Wall” below and the video for “Shouts” above, performed live in Portugal. Both are songs from Between The Times & The Tides.
