Thalia Zedek
The previously touted ‘Been Here & Gone’ solo debut
from the Come vocalist/guitarist will be out on July 31. Prior
to that, Zedek is making a brief European promo trip including
a one-off solo appearance at London’s 12 Bar Club on
June 23. US dates to follow.

One of the planet’s finest vocalists
and her forthcoming solo debut — Dates & titles
are still in that ‘TBA’ netherworld, but later this
year we’ll be releasing a solo album from Thalia Zedek,
the phenomenal vocalist/guitarist whose contributions to bands
including Come, Uzi, Live Skull and the Dangerous Birds, have
long made her a favorite of ours and yours too, we’ll
bet. With the assistance of producer Bryce Goggin (Come, Chavez,
Bettie Serveert), Thalia is nearing completion on an album
we’re confident will reestablish her as an awesome talent
worthy of fear and respect. OK, maybe not fear. But this does
bring us to the age-old question, is it better to be feared
or respected? Some would argue that only through fear can
you maintain power. Others would argue that true power can
only be gained through mutual respect and understanding. I
don’t really have an opinion on this and hopefully you
don’t either. We have lots of work to do around here
without bogged down in philosophical debate.

To add to the list of things that members of Come are
doing: Thalia Zedek will perform a set at Threadwaxing
Space on Tuesday Oct. 3rd. Accompanying her on viola/violin
will be David Michael Curry of the Willard Grant Conspiracy.
Both Thalia and Chris Brokaw recently performed with David’s
Empty House Cooperative at the Middle East. Chris played guitar
and Thalia played flute. Arrive early (8:00) for the T.W’ing
space, as the various performers (readings, spoken words,
music etc.) will be doing short sets at unconfirmed times.
Expect to hear her excellent version of Leonard Cohen’s
“Dance Me to the End of Love.” Thalia is also (tbc)
on a bill with Evan Dando on October 18th at the Brattle Theatre
in Harvard Sq., Cambridge, MA. Look in the tour dates update
for more TZ and CB-related shows. Meanwhile we wait patiently
for the live return of Come....
