Joel Gion, best known as the tambourinist for psych-rockers the Brian Jonestown Massacre, will play a series of solo shows next month.
Emerging with an collection of his own music, done entirely his own way, Gion will release 'Apple Bonkers' on September 1. Check out the video for the first track on the album, YES.
Speaking about the release, Joel says:
“With all the BJM members now living so spread out across the world, I found myself increasingly missing the album making process. This feeling of disconnect is what kick started me into exploring my own song writing process and turned out to be a hugely important piece of self discovery. No more time for my beloved laziness. So I made my own music with a with bunch of friends in the studio coming and going and having a great time creating. I think a lot of people are going to be surprised by this album.“
Having recently played a solo UK tour, including a sold out show at London's Shacklewell Arms, Joel returns to the UK with a full band in September to promote the album. Tickets are on sale now, priced at £8.00 (£10.00 in London), plus fees.
