Heads up, Quannum fans! Fresh off their well-received new album, the imaginatively constructed Gutterfly, Lifesavas are headed to over two dozen towns during the next two months. Expect tag team rhymes by Jumbo the Garbageman and Vursatyl (two of the worst MC names ever, I know) and fresh cuts by Rev. Shines.
Texas ensemble Strange Fruit Project, still hard at work promoting last year’s The Healin’, will join the Portland trio. Prior to the tour, Quannum figurehead DJ Shadow will take Lifesavas along on a few warm-up gigs. Tour dates are below.
