John Doe added tour dates; book & new album out now

John Doe, co-founder of legendary LA punk band X, recently released his solo album The Westerner and Under the Big Black Sun: A Personal History of L.A. Punk, his literary debut. He had some dates coming up, and since we last spoke, he added a lot more.

In addition to the free performance/book reading at Rough Trade NYC on May 17, he’ll return to NYC for another show a City Winery on June 15. That’s with opener Jesse Dayton. Tickets for that one are on sale.

Updated dates are listed, with the video for “Sunlight” off the new album, below.
