News : Scott Kelly And The Road Home (Neurosis) touring with Jarboe (Swans)

By on June 17, 2013

Tour promoter Heathen Skulls made a Facebook post last week that they had something to announce involving the legendary Scott Kelly very soon, and while it’s not a full Neurosis tour, it’s definitely exciting.

After touring as a solo musician last year, the man will be returning to Australia this November with his backing band The Road Home, featuring also-Neurosis-member Noah Landis. They’ll be presenting a range of material in acoustic form from Scott’s solo releases.

And as if that isn’t enough, ex-Swans vocalist/keyboardist Jarboe will be joining the tour for her first Australian visit. As well as being a Swans member from 1985 until 1996, Jarboe also contributed vocals to a Neurosis collaborative EP back in 2003. So it doesn’t get more fitting than this. She’ll be performing as a duo, presenting stripped back versions of both Swans classics and her own material.
