Orange Goblin Announce US Shows Around Desertfest NYC Appearance
Speaking on behalf of the entire United States with authority granted to me by precisely nobody, I bid a heartfelt “welcome back” to London’s Orange Goblin as they return once more to American shores this Spring to play Desertfest New York 2022 at the Knockdown Center in Brooklyn. This will mark the first time the four-piece have been to the States since bringing aboard bassist Harry Armstrong (also backing vocals) in place of founding member Martyn Millard, and they’ll arrive not a moment too soon, playing in Seattle on May 11 as part of a four-gig stint that quickly spans both coasts.
Tone Deaf Touring is presenting the shows, and Orange Goblin will be joined by High Tone Son of a Bitch, Telekinetic Yeti and The Atomic Bitchwax, respectively, in Seattle, Boston and Reading, Pennsylvania (outside Philly), in addition of course to Desertfest, where they’ll appear on May 13.
One doesn’t expect Orange Goblin to come back to the US this year, so if you’re on the fence, you might factor that into whether or not you choose to show up. The key words there are the last four: “choose to show up.” Tickets do be available.

**ORANGE GOBLIN ANNOUNCE US SHOWS FOR MAY 2022**
Orange Goblin will be performing a small number of club shows in the US when we travel over in May to perform at Desertfest New York. This year marks 20 years since Orange Goblin first came to the USA when we toured with Alabama Thunderpussy back in 2002. Since then we have been back numerous times but not since the short tour in 2019, so we are very excited to play these dates and we are bringing some cool friends with us to support!
May 11 – El Corazon, Seattle, WA (with support from HTSOB)
May 13 – Desertfest New York 2022, NY (@ Knockdown Center)
May 14 – The Middle East, Boston, MA (with support from Telekinetic Yeti)
May 15 – Reverb, Reading, PA (with support from The Atomic Bitchwax)
Tickets for all shows are on sale via this link:

This was a no-brainer. I may be the only sober person at reverb that night, but screw it! OFGB!
