The band Clap You Hands Say Yeah are finishing up a 20th anniversary world tour and are about to embark on a special tour with nothing but their voices and a piano. The new tour begins in the middle of January and will visit just 10 North American cities that includes one Canadian stop.
Tickets are currently on sale.
An extremely limited black and white splatter vinyl edition of “Clap Your Hands Say Yeah” Bootleg Series Vol. 1 will be available at the shows while supplies last.
Clap Your Hands; Alec Ounsworth spoke on the upcoming dates saying,, “essentially, this is an opportunity for me to put forward my songs for Clap Your Hands in their starkest form. After having done shows in this form in Europe, this will be the first round of shows of this kind in the United States. Doing the material in this way has been a chance to connect with the work on an intimate and new (but familiar) level. Be ready for some raw emotion – precisely what I, for one, need at the moment. Please join me for these speci
al, small shows.”
