Dylan Carlson, of Earth (ricky-oh)
Like a lone gunslinger riding off into the sunset, Dylan Carlson & Earth will bring the cowboy-soundtracky The Bees Made Honey In The Lions Skull across the badlands of the midwest and east coast. One of those stops, the Knitting Factory on May 6th (on sale now), will feature the dark chanteuse Jesse Sykes with her hand The Sweet Hereafter (mem of Whiskeytown).
How did these two seemingly dissimilar artists end up on the same bill? Southern Lord casts light where there is darkness:
Some of the alumni that gathered for this album [Jesse Sykes‘s Like, Love, Lust and the Open Halls of the Soul] such as Bill Herzog, Steve Moore, Eyvind Kang, and Randall Dunn have strong ties to sunn 0))), Earth and Southern Lord, so although it may seem a strange release amongst our catalog, it really makes perfect sense!
Jesse Sykes & The Sweet Hereafter are streaming a new song at their myspace and have a few tour dates of their own including a European tour with Marissa Nadler, and scattered dates with Black Mountain, The Weakerthans & Castanets. Head out and pic up a tour only EP while you’re out.
Southern Lord recently sold out of the 180-gram 2LP of Jesse Sykes & The Sweet Hearafter‘s latest Like Love, Lust And The Open Halls of The Soul, but a second pressing is on it’s way. All dates below…
