Stereo Embers The Podcast 0499: Patrick Wolf

"Crying The Neck" With seven marvelous albums under his musical belt, including 2003's Lycanthropy, 2005's Wind In The Wires and his latest album Crying The Neck, which broke a nearly fifteen-year hiatus from recorded music, Patrick Wolf is a wondrous talent. The London-born musician is one of the most arresting artists on the planet--his songs effortlessly meld trip-hop, electronica and indie rock into some of the most compelling, dramatic and altogether moving compositions you're likely to hear. Wolf's music is literary, emotionally precise and sonically arresting. I know a lot of people say his music is baroque and that's not too far off the mark, but an easier way to think of it is Tricky by way of Scott Walker. A multi-instrumentalist, a model, a producer, a playwright a label owner, a poet, and a student at Trinity College, Wolf has played with Arcade Fire, Patti Smith and The Hidden Cameras. He's the recipient of The Edmund Burke Medal from Trinity College Historical Society, Dublin for his Outstanding Contribution to Discourse through the Arts and he's on tour this summer. www.patrickwolf.com www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) Stereo Embers: IG + THREADS + BLUESKY: @emberspodcast Email: [email protected] Patrick Wolf Tour Dates: June 5 in Washington, DC at DC9 June 7 in Raleigh, NC at The Pour House Music Hall & Record Shop June 10 in Nashville, TN at 3rd & Lindsley June 11 in Atlanta, GA at Smith’s Olde Bar June 13 in Miami, FL at Churchills Pub June 18 in New Orleans, LA at Gasa Gasa June 20 in Houston, TX at The Secret Group June 21 in Denton, TX at Rubber Gloves June 23 in Austin, TX at Long Center For The Performing Arts June 26 in Tucson, AZ at Hotel Congress June 28 in Phoenix, AZ at Valley Bar June 30 in Los Angeles, CA at Lodge Room
