The Canadian band Godspeed You! Black Emperor is heading to Newcastle, 25th October at the Boiler Shop

Godspeed You! Black Emperor will be embarking on a considerable tour across Europe and the UK this autumn. The band has not been on the road since a significant string of dates in early 2016.    

The tour kicks off in Rome, with two special performances of a collaborative project with Canadian dance company Holy Body Tattoo.

Godspeed’s collaboration on the troupe's renowned monumental piece has been shown across the world in performing arts festivals and halls since its premiere at Vancouver's PuSh Performing Arts Festival in January 2016.    

The tour includes stops in France, UK, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany. The tour heads to Newcastle’s Boiler Shop on Wednesday 25th October 2017.  

Listen to "Peasantry or 'Light! Inside Of Light!" from their March 2015 release Asunder, Sweet And Other Distress.
