With the news that Jonathan Meiburg of Shearwater and Jamie Stewart of Xiu Xiu are recording an album together , you’d think that would make a pretty solid tour. I was kind of hoping for it. Alas, we have to settle for — Damien Jurado? Well that’s not settling, that’s fantastic. Jurado recently released his 9th studio album, one of his best, Saint Bartlett, and we all know Shearwater are like a “Leviathan, Bound” when they perform live. This has the makings for some special nights across the U.S. full of arresting music.
