James Blackshaw (UK) 2008 Tour Dates (4 NYC shows)

James Blackshaw

Since last year’s The Cloud of Unknowing (Pitchfork’s 34th favorite album of 2007) introduced James Blackshaw and his formidable 12-string skills to a wider audience, fans exploring Blackshaw’s back catalogue have been in for quite a dig. Some of the UK guitarist/composer’s earliest limited-run CD-Rs and LPs have been out of print. But thanks to his current label Tompkins Square, four of those releases will again see the light of the laser and the prick of the needle on March 25. [Pitchfork]

Thanks to a last minute tip (thx), I just realized that James Blackshaw is in NYC – playing Orchard Gallery tonight (Jan 25), and Sound Fix tomorrow, and then Philly, and then Orchard Gallery again, and then Issue Project Room. Plenty of chances to see him. All tour dates below….
