Bob Mould releases new live EP, announces solo electric tour
Bob Mould has just released a new live EP titled The Ocean, which features three solo acoustic live performances that were originally recorded for NPR’s World Café Live. It’s out now and you can stream it below.
“One of my special places is Ocean Beach in San Francisco,” Mould says. “Over the past twelve years, I’ve spent many early mornings walking the shoreline. There’s very few people at dawn: fishers, joggers with dogs, surfers. Depending on the tide cycle, the beach takes on different appearances – sandy sheets of reflective glass, ever-shifting playground for Snowy Plovers and other birds, ocean matter washed up on the shore. I think clearly when walking through the mixture of salt, sand, wind and water. The beach beneath my feet, waves as far as the eye can see, the twinkling night sky giving way to colorful morning light. The constant din of the waves does wonders for my tinnitus. It’s a grounding, soothing, calming feeling – a place to rest. And, there’s always the undertow — that chance of ending up in deeper waters. The Ocean is my homage to those visions, senses, and emotions.”
Bob has also announced a spring solo electric tour that includes stops in Los Angeles, Berkeley, Portland, Vancouver, Seattle, Woodstock, Pawling, NY and more. Currently there’s no NYC show but all dates are listed below.
