Giant Sand and Jason Lytle to play Róisín Dubh

IT HAS been a decade since Giant Sand, the alt.rock/Americana band led by Howe Gelb, have played Galway, but 2016 sees them return, as part of a co-headline tour with Jason Lytle.

Giant Sand and Jason Lytle play the Róisín Dubh on Friday April 15 as part of their current British and Irish tour. This tour will see Howe Gelb marking 30 years of Giant Sand and perform songs from the most recent album, the critically acclaimed Heartbreak Pass on New West Records. The album's first single, 'Transponder', was produced by Jason Lytle, a long-time friend of Gelb. That collaboration also led to the idea of the two men touring together.

An exclusive vinyl box set of Giant Sand’s enormous catalogue is in the works through Fire America, and is set for release in spring 2016. The lable has already made available most works of both Giant Sand and Howe Gelb solo, digitally, and on CD.

Tickets are available at www.roisindubh.net, the Ticket Desk at OMG Zhivago, Shop Street, and The Róisín Dubh.
