SUFJAN STEVENS
LIVE AT THE HELIX, DUBLIN
FRIDAY 28th & SATURDAY 29th AUGUST
with special guests:
MADISEN WARD AND THE MAMA BEAR
**TICKETS ON SALE THIS THURSDAY 23rd APRIL AT 9AM**
Following the release of his critically acclaimed new album ‘Carrie & Lowell’, Sufjan Stevens has announced two shows at The Helix, Dublin on Friday 28th and Saturday 29th August.
Tickets from €40.05 incl. booking fee are on sale this Thursday 23rd April at 9am from Ticketmaster outlets and online at www.ticketmaster.ie and the Helix Box Office on 01 700 7000 or www.thehelix.ie
The latest album — named for Stevens’ mother and stepfather — is a return to Stevens’ folk roots. Thematically the eleven songs address life and death, love and loss, and the artist’s struggle to make sense of the beauty and ugliness of love.
'Carrie & Lowell' was recorded by Stevens alongside Casey Foubert, Laura Veirs, Nedelle Torrisi, Sean Carey, Ben Lester and Thomas Bartlett and mixed by Stevens, Bartlett and Pat Dillet.
Sufjan Stevensis a singer-songwriter currently living in Brooklyn, NY. A preoccupation with epic concepts has motivated two state records ('Michigan' and 'Illinois'), a collection of sacred and biblical songs ('Seven Swans'), an electronic album for the animals of the Chinese zodiac ('Enjoy Your Rabbit'), two Christmas box sets ('Songs for Christmas', vol. 1-5 and 'Silver & Gold', vol. 6-10), and a BAM-commissioned programmatic tone poem for the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway ('The BQE'). In 2010 Stevens released an expansive EP ('All Delighted People') and the full length 'The Age of Adz', a collection of songs partly inspired by the outsider artist Royal Robertson.
Stevens recently collaborated with New York City Ballet choreographer and dancer Justin Peck on 'Year of the Rabbit', a modern dance program set to a classical orchestration of 'Enjoy Your Rabbit' and an original orchestral score commissioned for Peck’s ballet 'Everywhere We Go'.
Joining Sufjan Stevens as special guest are Madisen Ward and the Mama Bear.
