David Tibet: Announces Roadburn Line-Up

img  Tobias
The other projects to appear on Sunday, 20th of April at the Roadburn in Tilburg, the Netherlands, involve some high-calliber artists from the most diverse corners of the experimental universe. Aethenor is one of the many projects by Stephen O'Malley of SUNN O))), while the hard-to-categorise Baby Dee has been one of David Tibet’s favourite acts for some time: “I was introduced to Baby Dee's world and work some years ago by Antony. Dee and I became friends, and she started working with, and playing in, Current 93. My label Durtro released her first two albums, as well as a recent compilation, and her new album, "Safe Inside The Day' is just out on Drag City. (...) I love Baby Dee's music more than I can say. I think that you will too."

The appearance of Rickie Lee Jones is, of course, easily the most remarkable feat of the line-up. “Rickie Lee Jones is an artist of profound lyrical and musical power, and her album "The Sermon on Exposition Boulevard" easily ranks as one of my favourite albums ever”, according to Tibet, “Returning to her earlier albums in 2007 after hearing "Sermon...", after a hiatus of almost 25 years, I was mesmerised by the stark beauty of her work, and I determined to invite her to the day I am curating at Roadburn, eager to have her perform to audiences who may never have been lucky enough to come across her music before.”

Needless to say, Current 93 will also be performing at the Roadburn, further enriched by a set from Belgian drone master Fear Falls Burning.
