OFF: Roedelius tour

[Keith Henderson]

Hi Folks...FYI...Keith H. (FAA)

Curious Music is pleased to announce the Indian Summer North American tour
by German Electronica legend Hans Joachim Roedelius. These rare live dates
represent his first-ever solo tour in over 30 years of highly influential
work in avant-garde music. Described by the Chicago Tribune as "one of the
best kept
secrets of 20th century music", Roedelius is best known as one half of Cluster
and as a contemporary of such sound innovators as Kraftwerk, Can and
occasional collaborator Brian Eno. His tremendous influence threads
throughout contemporary electronica having informed the work of David Bowie,
Stereolab, The Orb, Tortoise, Autechre and many others.

Roedelius' awe-inspiring catalog of over 80 albums continues to grow with
several releases this year. His forthcoming "Global Trotters" project,
Drive, has been described by U2's The Edge as a "beautiful, soulful
trainride of a record".

Roedelius has garnered a sterling international reputation for his live
performances. In 1996 Roedelius and Cluster embarked on a successful
US/Japan tour of 25 cities lauded by the New York Times as "serenity without
the sugar in a New Age sound".

In addition to the "normal" shows dates are scheduled at alternative art spaces,
avant-cafes and  like-minded venues. Selected dates in some cities will include
special guests such as Roger Eno & Lol Hammond, Harold Budd, and Tim Story.
