Yawning Man Announce Australian Tour Dates
So if you’ve been keeping up — and if not, I ain’t judging; not trying to be a jerk or at least not that kind of one — then the only news here is the Australian tour that will be undertaken by the long-running instrumental trio Yawning Man, led as ever by founding guitarist and tonal godsend Gary Arce. If you’ve missed the last couple updates from the desert rock progenitors, well, first, they’ve got a new record coming. It’s called Long Walk of the Navajo, it’s out June 16, and the US and EU preorder links are pasted below. Due diligence done.
Also noteworthy is that Greg Saenz, who’s been in the band before, is handling drums for this tour and the European tour they’ll do after it this Fall, already confirmed as they are for Up in Smoke and Desertfest Belgium with more no doubt to follow. I don’t know if that’s a permanent lineup shift or not, but it’s relevant as Bill Stinson had been in Yawning Man for a while, taking over the throne however many years ago from Alfredo Hernandez, currently in Avon.
There. If you weren’t up to date I’m pretty sure you are now. Also I’m streaming the record the week of release. Honored to do it, in fact.
