Cloud Cult at Bowery, 2008 (more by Chris La Putt)

Hi Cloud Cult Friends!

A big thanks to everyone for the support through Craig Minowa's (Cloud Cult's singer/songwriter) recent health issues. The loving emails and positive energy were incredibly appreciated and powerful during the darkest parts of the experience. The heart surgery was a big success, and Craig now has more energy than ever!

The healing has gone so well, in fact, that we're ready to take the stage this week (Mankato, MN) for the first time since December of last year... We also have a new cellist, Daniel Zamzow, who has learned a massive amount of material in a very short period of time. As a band, we're excited to bring some new songs (from past albums) to the stage...

We look forward to seeing your shining faces again soon...

Though I just saw them live at the end of October, I didn't even realize Craig was sick until I went to Clould Cult's site to see what they were up to in relation to the just-announced tour dates. Glad Craig is doing great after after cancelling dates in January to undergo noninvasive heart surgery.

With new cellist in tow, Cloud Cult will hit the road in April and May to play some more U.S. dates, including a pair of NYC-area shows at Maxwell's on 5/24 (on sale now) and Music Hall of Williamsburg on 5/27 (AmEx presale begins at noon). Welcome back Craig. All tour dates listed below...
