David Bazan

November 3rd, 2009

© hayley youngThis very Saturday (Nov 7th) @ Neumos David Bazan and his band will be playing songs from his new Album “Curse your Branches” It’ his first full-length he’s released under his name. On it Bazan describes his recent struggles with faith and addiction in language that makes it clear how far he’s traveled since dissolving Pedro the Lion in 2005. If ever there was a spokesman for those suffering from the God-sick blues, David Bazan is it. Since the demise of Pedro the Lion, Bazan has been touring as just a man and a guitar, but for this record he took the initiative to record all the instruments himself, adding an unexpected layer of emotional complexity to a collection of songs that are already strikingly autobiographical and frank.
.

For this tour His new band is a northwest supergroup of sorts with Eric Elbogen of Say Hi (also playing), Andy Fitts of Aqueduct, Casey Foubert, and Blake Wescott.
.

After breaking in a new band, first at a couple of Edmonds house shows, then the following weekend up at Doe Bay Music Festival on Orcas Island, and touring over the last few weeks.  I am sure that they will be ready to play a sort of home coming show for Seattle.
.

Get your tickets soon. There is a very good chance that this show will sell out.
