The Pixies To Play Australia In March 2017

in News

The Pixies will return to Australia for their first dates since 2010 in March 2017.

This tour for The Pixies is around the release of the new album ‘Head Carrier’.

The line-up for The Pixies 2016 is vocalist/guitarist Black Francis, drummer David Lovering and guitarist Joey Santiago and bassist Paz Lenchatin now a permanent member of the line-up.

“Paz is a joy to be around,” said Lovering. “She’s very funny, and we’re having more fun than we’ve ever had as a band, we all have a blast together, on and off stage.”

I could go to a James Taylor show just for the stories. The man is a part of music history and is still around to tell the tales of how it all began. Like, for instance, being the first artist signed to Apple Records. James “auditioned” for Apple with his song ‘Something In The Way She Moves’. "Paul went away and started the label and George went away and wrote the song”, he said.
