Mar. 21, 2012, Austin, Tex. — Greg Ginn and The Royal We, Ginn’s solo electro-instrumental project, has added a handful of California dates leading up to his Apr. 15 and 22 performances at Coachella.
Greg Ginn and The Royal We’s debut album, We Are Amused, was released on SST in November and was hilariously described by Rolling Stone as “Black Sabbath scoring a Godzilla movie.” Ginn plays guitar, bass, theramin and synthesizer on the release with a host of effects to create the lush and loosely psychedelic release. Live, Ginn utilizes a Mac combined with a wall of amp racks and speakers to create the powerful sound.
Greg Ginn and the Royal We tour dates:
April 5 San Diego, CA Soda Bar
April 6 Bakersfield, CA Sports and Spirits
April 7 San Luis Obispo, CA The Z
April 8 San Luis Obispo, CA The Z
April 15 Indio, CA Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival
April 22 Indio, CA Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival
Also recently released on SST Records:
Mojack’s Hijinks – Hijinks is the fifth CD from the instrumental group Mojack. Tony Atherton (sax) and Greg Ginn (guitar/bass) are joined this time around by the amazing drummer Khalil Hebert. The result is a kinetic combination of driving grooves and guitar/sax interplay.
