Michael Rother & Friends Present The Music Of Neu!

And (R)other friends of mine…

Following on from a couple of European dates earlier in the year, Michael Rother will be performing selected concerts around the world in summer 2010 with his project Hallogallo 2010.

Rother (far left in the line-up above) will be joined by Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth), Aaron Mullan (Tall Firs) and Benjamin Curtis (The Secret Machines, School of Seven Bells). Together they will play music by NEU! as well as tracks by Harmonia and some of Michael Rother´s own solo work.

David Bowie has long been a fan of Rother’s work even contributing sleevenotes to NEU!’s recent box set retrospective. (05.07.2010 NEWS: NUE! VINYL BOX SET OUT MONDAY WITH BOWIE QUOTATION)

As I’m sure you will remember, Bowie has also championed the work of both Sonic Youth and The Secret Machines.
