Pete Yorn is on an extensive North American headlining tour (dates below) in support of his new, self-titled album, which was produced by Frank Black. Special guest Ben Kweller will open on all dates.
For a sample of what to expect, check out Yorn’s performance on The Live Buzz and his interview and performance for Rolling Stone.
Spin had this to say about Yorn’s performance at the Roxy in 2010: “Fronting a tight four-piece band on the eve of the release of his sixth album, Yorn delivered a crackling set … that underlined his latest manifestation: as an indie rocker who will roar, rather than mope, in the face of his chronically restless romanticism.”
Last year’s self-titled release follows Yorn’s two 2009 releases. Back & Fourth, hailed as “haunting” by Entertainment Weekly, debuted at number 32 on The Billboard 200 last June. Break Up, a collaboration with Scarlett Johansson was released last September.
