THE BURNING HELL + JEFFREY LEWIS

In the organizer's words:

The Burning Hell are coming back to Europe to tour their newest album Ghost Palace (coming 7.3.25 on BB*Island and You've Changed Records). Ghost Palace is a direct sequel to 2022's Garbage Island, and is similarly concerned with birds, death, space, and various kinds of apocalypse, all treated with The Burning Hell's trademark humor and the danceable sounds of whimsical decay. Their friend and frequent collaborator Shotgun Jimmie will be supporting the shows with opening sets of his unique one-man-band slacker-rock songs.

Jeffrey Lewis and his various bandmates have perfected a scuzzy, urban style of indie-folk, developing from late-90s New York City bedroom tapes into a mighty 21st Century mash-up of folksy spiel and artsy garage, like Pete Seeger meeting Sonic Youth. A born and raised denizen of the Lower East Side, Lewis's home recordings were discovered by Rough Trade Records in 2001 (famed label of The Smiths, The Strokes, Belle & Sebastian and more) while Lewis was briefly living in Austin, Texas. Since the 2001 release of his first official album "The Last Time I Did Acid I Went Insane and Other Favorites" on Rough Trade Records, Lewis has toured the world and released numerous acclaimed albums on Rough Trade and other labels. He's built a worldwide fanbase while regularly changing band names, most recently recording as Jeffrey Lewis & The Voltage for Don Giovanni Records and Moshi Moshi Records.
