We’re pleased to be welcoming David J (Bauhaus, Love and Rockets) as part of his newly announced European and UK tour for his new album ‘Missive To An Angel From The Halls Of Infamy And Allure’, a highly ambitious and intensely personal, self deprecating, confessional song cycle, which he sees as a culmination of everything he has created thus far. It will be released on double vinyl, CD and digitally as of October 18 via London-based Glass Modern Records.
David recently completed a massive world tour for Bauhaus’ Ruby anniversary, joining former bandmate Peter Murphy. Sold out venues around the world proved once again that Bauhaus’ music is as vital now as it was 40 years ago.
David J will be bringing his distinct charm and sonic swagger to audiences in Germany, Italy, Portugal, Spain, France and the UK. Special guest on all dates will be singer/songwriter Micky Greaney, whose forthcoming album is being produced by David J.
David’s trio will feature the great Karel Holas on violin for most dates. Karel played on the album which was recorded at his First Floor studio in Prague. Robert Vasicek, who also contributed to the album, will play piano.
David J recently announced his new single ‘Migena And The Frozen Roses’ featuring The Brian Jonestown Massacre frontman Anton Newcombe and Italian actress Asia Argento, which is set to be released on September 6. A two-track version of the single, including David’s rendition of ‘Read ‘Em‘N Weep’ (written by Ian Hunter), is available exclusively via Bandcamp.
‘Missive To An Angel From The Halls Of Infamy And Allure’ is a double album and a ‘coming home’ of sorts with Glass Modern Records essentially the newly reactivated Glass Records, the label that originally released some of David J’s earliest critically acclaimed solo works. It can be pre-ordered at https://glassmodern.bandcamp.com/album/missive-to-an-angel-from-the-halls-of-infamy-and-allure
