For Alexis' show, ”Expect modern-day secular 'spirituals,' playing with our expectations of artificiality and authenticity, responding to The Met Cloisters' space and history.”
The tour features two nights in each city: On the first night, they'll play a set of recent songs ahead of Hearts of Oak album in its entirety; the second night they'll play a career-spanning set that goes from 1999’s self-titled LP to 2017’s The Hanged Man.
The 2017 Moogfest lineup includes Flying Lotus, Animal Collective, Gotye, Suzanne Ciani, Derrick May, 808 State, Jessy Lanza, Simian Mobile Disco, Moor Mother, Syrinx, Visible Cloaks, Princess Nokia, Pye Corner Audio, Kyle Dixon & Michael Stein of S U R V I V E, and more.
YYYs celebrated the legendary rock photographer with covers of Bowie and VU, and other performers included Marky Ramone, Eugene Hutz, TV on the Radio, and more. Debbie Harry was in the house too (but not to perform).
