Neko Case

About this event

Neon Grey Midnight Green Tour Opening Act: Destroyer (solo) Every handful of years, Neko Case resurfaces with a new album and reminds listeners that she is one of our greatest living songwriters — perpetually becoming more fearless and adventurous. “She has cultivated one of the most distinctive voices in American song,” Stereogum declared. “Her albums unravel like musical picaresque: restlessly digressive, bluntly funny, strange — but never in ways you’d anticipate.” The Grammy-nominated iconoclast’s ninth LP, Neon Grey Midnight Green, is her biggest-sounding and most intimate-feeling album yet. Released last fall to immediate critical acclaim and declared an essential album in her catalog, the album was laid down live with a full band. More “in the room” than any of her past work, even breaths and shirt-sleeve rustlings were kept in the final mix as a reminder that “humans were here.” “There are so few producers who are women, nonbinary, or trans,” says Case, who identifies as gender fluid and uses she/her pronouns. “People don’t think of us as an option. I’m proud to say I produced this record.” Today she is announcing a new run of ‘Neon Grey Midnight Green’ tour dates that begin this fall on the East coast and end with two shows in Case’s hometown of Tacoma, Washington.
