Pm-The Last Shadow Puppets-21.03.2016 Pdf FKP Scorpio Konzertproduktionen GmbH Große Elbstr. 277 a ∙ 22767 Hamburg Tel. (040) 853 88 888 ∙ www.fkpscorpio.com PRESSEMITTEILUNG 21.03.2016 The Last Shadow Puppets kommen im Sommer auf Tour Fast acht Jahre sind vergangen seitdem Alex Turner, Sänger bei den Arctic Monkeys, und Miles Kane, Sänger bei The Rascals, als The Last Shadow Puppets ihr durchschlagendes Debütalbum „The Age Of Understatement“ in die Welt setzten. Für Turner und die Arctic Monkeys ging es daraufhin mit den Alben „Humbug“, „Suck It And See“ und zuletzt „AM“ weiter. Miles Kane tourte weiter mit den Rascals und betätigte sich als Solo-Künstler. Die Wege beider Künstler trennten sich dennoch nie ganz. Jetzt melden sie sich zurück mit dem am 1. April erscheinenden „Everything You’ve Come To Expect“. Aufgenommen wurde in den Shangri La Studios in Malibu, selbstverständlich mit Produzent und Bandmitglied James Ford, der neben den Arctic Monkeys auch schon weitere Größen wie Florence And The Machine, Klaxons, Peaches oder Mumford & Sons unter seine Fittiche nahm und der bei den Puppets auch gleich noch den Part des Schlagzeugers übernahm. Am Bass wurden sie begleitet von Zachary Dawes von den Mini Mansions. Natürlich dürfen bei The Last Shadow Puppets die obligatorischen Streicher nicht fehlen, die der Musik erst diesen Breitwandsound geben. Die Arrangements dafür kommen von keinem geringeren als Owen Pallett. Seit einiger Zeit schon kursieren die Tracks „Aviation“, „Bad Habits“ und das Titelstück der neuen Platte und ihre unglaublich ausgefuchsten Videos im Netz und weisen ganz klar die Richtung, in die das Album geht: cooler Rock mit großem Arrangement, britisches Songwriting mit etwas Brillantine im Haar, Lässigkeit mit Wumms und mit Stil. Der Sommer gehört, das darf man jetzt schon prognostizieren, The Last Shadow Puppets, allzumal auf der Bühne, wenn Turner, Kane und ihre Band bei uns ihre Songs präsentieren. Präsentiert wird die Tour von Musikexpress, piranha, ByteFM und Vevo. 27.06.2016 Köln - E-Werk 28.06.2016 Dresden - Schlachthof 23.08.2016 Berlin - Columbiahalle Tickets gibt es ab Mittwoch, 10 Uhr exklusiv über eventim.de. Ab dem 25. März gibt es die Tickets für 35 Euro zzgl.

The Last Shadow Puppets is a project by Alex Turner, known for his work as the front man and songwriter for Arctic Monkeys, and Miles Kane, a familiar face as a member of The Rascals and as a solo performer. They will make their live debut in Finland at this summer’s Flow. Their eagerly awaited new album Everything You’ve Come To Expect is slated for release on April 1. Flow will also host Holly Herndon, an American artist of growing significance in the experimental electronic music scene and Berlin-based producer Shackleton with his new project Powerplant. People who are into the international clubbing scene will be treated to performances by John Talabot, a brilliant producer who walks the tightrope between the underground and larger arenas with enviable panache, one of Germany’s premier electronic music DJs Roman Flügel, a unique persona as both DJ and producer The Black Madonna as well as DJ Pierre and DJ Spank from the legendary Chicago-based crew Phuture, whose Acid Tracks is widely considered to be the first acid house release.

    Nouse Web Archives Michael Shuman: “This moment has been a long time coming” Page 1 of 6 News Comment MUSE. Politics Business Science Sport Roses Freshers Muse › Music › News Features Reviews Playlists Michael Shuman: “This moment has been a long time coming” Queens of the Stone Age bassist talks to Chris Owen about his acclaimed side project Mini Mansions with fellow band member Tyler Parkford Tuesday 29 September 2015 Image: Michelle Shiers, courtesy of pinpointmusic.com Michael Shuman, California rock star with all the trimmings and front man of Mini Mansions, is probably the only musician to have headlined Reading and Leeds and also played support slots for the likes of Royal Blood and Arctic Monkeys. It’s for the former that he, Tyler Parkford and Zach Dawes are preparing to take to the stage in the outer reaches of Yorkshire – Royal Blood chose to bring their 10 date UK tour to Bridlington of all places, and Mini Mansions have the task of warming up a rain-lashed, sold-out crowd at the iconic Spa. “This moment feels like it’s been a long time coming,” says Shuman, not on playing a support slot in Brid, but on finally giving the sidelined project the attention and lease of life it deserves. We’re backstage, and Mini Mansions’ dressing room is decorated with an untouched chiller full of Budweiser and a cluster of iMacs. The rock n’ roll life on the road is painted as the ultimate marriage of work and play, but the reality always seems to be a clear division between the two, particularly in the case of artists playing a high profile, sold out tour.

But the listeners who have A.I.M. catalog. It fulfills Blacc’s ambition to express the followed Blacc over the course of his career know that richness of familial love on songs like “Glory Days” and his facility with language and sound is deep – if anyone “Family,” while also making room for anthems about was up to the task, it’s him. perseverance and support like “My Way” and “Corner.” Working with producers Jonas Jeberg, Jugglerz, Jon Across three albums, his sound evolved and grew, Levine, and Matt Prime, Blacc has crafted his most finding a pocket that reflects the long and beautiful open-hearted album to date.
