Thurston Moore Lines Up Solo Tour

Bon voyage! Thurston Moore's heading out on a vision quest or two in late September and October, when he'll play a handful of dates in support of his second solo joint, Trees Outside the Academy, out September 18 on his Ecstatic Peace label.
Thurston's backing band will consist of Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley, Samara Lubelski (Tower Recordings), Christopher Brokaw (Codeine, Come), and bassist Matt Heyner.
Charalambides' Christina Carter, all over Trees, will be opening the shows, both as herself and as Scorces, her longtime duo Heather Murray.
Extended family's nice and all, but Thurston will go nuclear with Kim and co. on quite a few dates Sonic Youth have on the way themselves.
