Mike Gordon June 2015 Tour Announced

Image

Mike Gordon returns to the road this June with his band on the heels of last year’s exhilarating tour supporting Overstep. The tour will begin down south in Charleston, SC and will include stops in Atlanta, St. Louis, Chicago, Philly, Albany, Buffalo, New Haven and more. Mike will perform as part of the Lowell Summer Music Series just outside of Boston and will return to the famed Egg in Albany.

The band will make a few debuts along the way including The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, Paper Mill Island in Syracuse and a Father’s Day show at the Academy of Music in Northampton. The band’s  repertoire will be augmented by hints of synesthetic mad scientist gadgetry on and around the stage. Mike will be bringing along his band – Scott Murawski (guitar), Craig Myers (percussion), Robert Walter (keyboards) and John Kimock (drums).
 
Wired Magazine came out to a show on Mike’s March tour last year to experience and talk about the new visual, audio and interactive tech-ification that will be a part of this June run.
 
“I like the idea of breaking down boundaries,” Gordon says. Of the theatrics and curiosities onstage on the Overstep tour, the centerpiece is an interactive piano-like instrument spanning the lip of the stage. At certain points during the show, touch-sensitive panels illuminate; by tapping on them, audience members trigger sounds and jam with the band as it plays. That’s just one piece of the big wacky puzzle. To experience it for yourself, catch one of the shows on this tour.
 
A limited number of tickets are available NOW via a real-time presale at tickets.mike-gordon.com which ends Thursday, April 9 at 5PM ET. Tickets will go on sale to the public beginning Friday, April 10.

Thunder Great news!

My immediate observation is two returning band members (Scott Murawski & Craig Myers) and two newbies (Robert Walter and John Kimock). Wonder if Todd Isler (drums) and Tom Cleary (keys) had other commitments or have just moved on? Time will tell.

melt_the_tek9 Tom teaches music at UVM, might have school commitments? Tom was seeing less songs and less highlight-time last tour as far as my ears could tell. I love Tom's songs!!!
No idea about Todd, but he's busy too with other things.

This opens all kinds of crazy opportunities for new sounds and songs!!!

p.s. Mike could make a pretty wicked horror movie or short film easy if he wanted to, that tour announcement video, while pretty hilarious, is creepy and at times a bit scary. Gordo the horror movie maker??!!? Maybe he'll be freakin us all out this tour, can't wait! Charleston will be amazing, he loves this town :)
