Thurston Moore

Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore is on tour now (currently going as (the) Thurston MoOre Baand) with Chain & the Gang, and he hits his former hometown of NYC TONIGHT (8/6) at Bowery Ballroom. Tickets for tonight are still available.

Before their show tonight, the band members — Thurston, MBV’s Deb Googe, James Sedwards, and SY’s Steve Shelley — will be at Other Music at 7 PM for a signing of last year’s The Best Day. Admission is free, but there’s limited capacity.

The now-UK-based Thurston will be back in North America in September for Riot Fest Chicago and Toronto, and he’s just added more tour dates to go down around that festival. One is near NYC at Jersey City’s WFMU Monty Hall on September 17. Tickets for NJ go on sale Friday (8/7) at noon.

Updated dates are listed, with the video for “Speak To THe Wild” from The Best Day, below…
