To Wit To Woo (2010-01-21) |
|
|
In addition to the March 9 release of Jason Collett’s fourth full-length, Rat A Tat Tat, Collett has announced the To Wit To Woo EP, featuring six songs recorded during album sessions, to be made available digitally and on Collett’s just announced spring Bonfire Ball tour. Rat A Tat Tat and To Wit To Woo were recorded in the summer and fall of 2009, largely on the east side of Toronto at Ill Eagle, Carlin Nicholson and Mike O’Brien of Zeus’ studio. Zeus, Collett’s long time backing band contributed throughout both releases along with a bevy of guests. Rat a Tat Tat is Jason Collett at his most playful, robust and revelatory. A true marvel. The Bonfire Ball tour, a true revue, with Zeus and Bahamas performing one long set, together and apart, was announced last week, kicking off at Canada Music Week on March 10th, continuing through SXSW, out west and across the great north on both sides of the border. Additional dates will be announced shortly.

The Bonfire Ball (2010-01-14) |

Jason Collett, Zeus and Bahamas have announced a North American revue tour featuring all three artists performing together and alone during a night long set of incredible music. The three acts have a long history of collaboration, as intertwined as their musical lineage. Instead of the typical show in which each act plays its own set, Collett, Zeus and Bahamas will all take the stage together, playing songs by all three.
The tour comes on the heels of new albums for Collett (Rat A Tat Tat, March 9) and Zeus (Say Us, February 23), and songs from both will be featured throughout the evening. The Bonfire Ball will kick off in March at Canadian Music Week in Toronto, wrapping in Kingston, April 17. Dates are below, with more to be announced.
