Bees Made Honey in the Vein Tree Announce October Touring
Here is a band I would relish an opportunity to see. Based in Stuttgart, Germany, Bees Made Honey in the Vein Tree have been tapped into the heart of heavy psychedelic exploration and rock for at least the last five years since their 2017 debut LP, Medicine (review here), offered healing expanse enough to earn its title. Their 2019 follow-up, Grandmother (review here), provided further glimpses into their trippy but still evocative, emotionally resonant approach, and as if to highlight the point, earlier this year, Harvestmen (Live) (discussed here), came out to not only make plain their intention to continue forward in the post-pandemic era, but to further argue in favor of showing up to tour dates like those listed below.
Next month in Europe is slammed with short runs like this, as well as the usual and then some slate of festivals, and I’ve got a separate post slated tomorrow for Canada’s Low Orbit, who’ll join Bees Made Honey in the Vein Tree for some of these shows listed below. Nonetheless, having never seen these guys live, it’s not something I’d pass up especially as one’s thoughts invariably turn to the prospect of a third album from them and how their sound might have progressed in the last three mostly-showless years. Note the Pink Tank Festival happening across three nights across three German cities. I think you’re going to see a lot of that kind of traveling package tour/fest in the next couple years as live music continues to ‘come back,’ compete with at-home entertainment and cope with — let’s face it — an audience the majority of which are aging even faster than the grey in their beards would make you think.
There’s a TBA date here. Someone hit up ElbSludgeBooking in Dresden and tell ’em to make it happen.
