Emma Ruth Rundle - These Killing Times - full band tour
Carroll's Paper events (evvnt, western Iowa + Omaha) no longer lists this. It may have been cancelled or moved, so check with the organiser before you go.
Greetings Fellow Humans! I am excited to announce my new record, These Killing Times - out on September 18th. I will be doing a tour with a full band in support of this new music - and we will play some of the old songs too. My friend, and a fellow artist I admire, Cinder Well will be my special guest and presenting music from her catalog and new music as well. We hope to see you at a show. Love, err
Rundle has always been a multifaceted musician, equally capable of dreamy abstraction (as heard on her debut album Electric Guitar: One), maximalist textural explorations (see her work in Marriages, Red Sparowes, Nocturnes or collaborations with Chelsea Wolfe and Thou), and the classic acoustic guitar singer-songwriter tradition (exemplified by Some Heavy Ocean). But on her last album Engine of Hell, Rundle focuses on an instrument that she left behind in her early twenties when she began playing in bands: the piano. In combination with her voice, the piano playing creates a kind of intimacy, as if we’re sitting beside Rundle on the bench, or perhaps even playing the songs ourselves.
