Greg Dulli

Greg Dulli‘s solo tour starts soon, including a sold-out Brooklyn show at Roulette. He’s just added a second NYC show, and this one will kick off the tour: February 3 at Bowery Ballroom with Joseph Arthur opening. Tickets for that show go on sale Friday (1/22) at 10 AM with a fan presale (password: Dulli2016) starting Wednesday (1/20) at 10 AM and a AmEx presale starting Wednesday at noon. Right after the Bowery show, he’ll head to Europe, with the North American tour starting in March. Updated tour dates are listed below.

In other news, Greg has covered David Bowie‘s 1983 hit “Modern Love” which is a free download from his website. He’s radically changed the song giving it a few new chords and a spare acoustic guitar and string section arrangement. Greg says:

I tried to record this song with the Whigs a while back and we just couldn’t get it the way I wanted it. With his passing last week, I was reminded of it and decided to finish it myself. The world is filled with love for David Bowie right now. It feels good. I feel inspired by his life.

You can listen to his take on “Modern Love” below.
