In her post-Sonic Youth career, Kim Gordon has been leaning towards the experimental side of her work.
This summer she’s spent time in Europe for duo performances with DNA’s Ikue Mori and free-noise guitarist Bill Nace. Support on this occasion will come from Islaja.
Gordon and Nace, who go by Body/Head, released a single this year with the Belgian label Ultra Eczema, “The Eyes, The Mouth” b/w “Night of the Ocean”.

Gordon and Nace team up for the third time (they also released a cassette and did a fever cover) showing no band needs a drummer to trash or mildly shake brains.
Basement jams after listening to basement jams, deep down in the deepest basement of the valley, 2 guitars fighting for a place on a chubby cassette recorder while the ultra no wave vocals of Kim Gordon ghostride through a pretty packed parking lot.

A throw back to early raw Sonic Youth days, where feedbags were the only luggage you needed for a night out.
