Selector Dub Narcotic (Calvin Johnson) touring in support of debut LP

Beat Happening frontman and K Recs domo Calvin Johnson is hitting the road under his Selector Dub Narcotic guise, where he mixes dancehall, soul, punk, garage, R&B, rock steady, bubblegum and rockabilly into a sound distinctly his own. (Johnson’s baritone ties everything together.) Things kick off in Athens, GA tonight (3/22) and he’ll hit NYC for two shows: Babycastles on April 2 and Alphaville on April 3. Both shows are with This Saxophone Kills Fascists (Arrington de Dionyso) and tickets are on sale now. All dates are listed below.

Johnson released his debut Selector Dub Narcotic album, This Party Is Just Getting Started, last fall. Stream that below.
