LEE RANALDO BAND-RECORD RELEASE DAY EVENTS 3/20/12

LEE’S BAND- LIVE ON WFMU AND AT OTHER MUSIC NYC 3/20/12

WFMU’S Brian Turner will air a set from the Lee Ranaldo Band at 4pm on Tuesday,  March 20, to celebrate the release of his solo album “Between The Times and The Tides”.  Brian will also be talking with Lee about the new album.  Later that evening Lee’s band will perform a special ‘acoustic instore’  at Other Music record store, 15 E 4th Street, NYC. While the radio show will be Lee with his full band (Steve Shelley, Alan Licht, Irwin Menken), the evening show will be a trio, without Steve, who had to jet outta town!  So be prepared for some one-of-a-kind versions of songs from the new LP…

WFMU 91.1 fm (NYC/metro NJ), 90.1 fm (Catskills/Hudson Valley/E Penna/W NJ)

Lee Ranaldo

Tuesday, March 20th, 3pm – 6pm

on Brian Turner’s show

Despite a vast history of production, poetry, writing, photography, and of course helping re-invent the modern approach to electric guitar chronicled under his belt, Sonic Youth guitarist and co-founder Lee Ranaldo has yet to release a solo album of his songs in a rock band context until now. His brand new Matador release “Between the Time and Tides” comes out March 20th, and on this day Lee visits Brian Turner’s show to blast through what’s sure to be an amazing set of new songs and probably some surprises as well. His live band, which features Alan Licht, Irwin Menken, and longtime SY drummer cohort Steve Shelley, has been playing around NYC since October’s debut at the Bell House. Not only do they evoke Lee’s finest moments and songcraft from his contributions to Sonic Youth, but also can be said to further feed his pure classic rock jones via the likes of Crazy Horse and Television. Not to be missed!
