There’s been a lot of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds news lately, which is usually par for the course in late October. But beyond any seasonal feelings, the legendary musician returned a few weeks ago with one of his finest and darkly emotive albums ever in The Skeleton Tree, complete with companion film One More Time With Feeling. On Monday, we hyped Big Time Kill’s industrial cover of “Red Right Hand”, and now, this afternoon, comes word of a full on Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds tour that comes to Boston next spring.
The North American leg of the 2017 Skeleton Tree tour begins May 25 in Brooklyn, comes to Boston’s Wang Theatre at the Boch Center (yes, that Boch) on June 10, and wraps June 29 in Los Angeles.
Tickets to the Boston show go on sale Friday (October 28) at 10 a.m., and are priced between $45 and $99.
Pitchfork reports that the Bad Seeds lineup will feature Cave, Warren Ellis, Martyn Casey, Thomas Wydler, Jim Sclavunos, Conway Savage, George Vjestica, and Larry Mullins. They also reveal that One More Time With Feeling, will return to theaters on December 1. It will screen at two Cambridge locations, the Kendall Square Cinema and Landmark Kendall.
