Angels of Light/Michael Gira at the Echo!
Sunday, March 1st, 2009I realize that we have been attending many shows over the past few weeks. Some of which were taken on blind faith that the band we were going to see would be good. Well I am not sure how familiar some of you are with Angels of Light/Michael Gira but he is a bonfide hero to me. He was originally in the Swans but had a spiritual experience once that told him folk was the purest form of music. I must say I agree with him (for now). He is the owner of YoungGodRecords which has produced Akron Family, Devendra Banhart, Fire on Fire and more recently Larkin Grimm and James Blackshaw. His music is dark and poetic, containing more depth and weight than most. If you have not heard him, download my top ten esoteric track listing Here; I placed him as #1.
I bought 6 tickets @ $14 a piece. Ebee is going to be out of town so I hope we can somehow find enough people to go. FYI Larkin Grimm is opening for him which should be interesting.
