Radiohead’s Colin Greenwood will be playing with Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds on their upcoming tour, its been announced today (September 4).
It comes after the band announced that Martyn Casey won’t be able to join the tour due to illness. Previously, Greenwood has played with Cave live on his recent solo tours as well as several dates of the ‘Carnage’ tour with Warren Ellis. Greenwood also contributed parts to the band’s new album, ‘Wild God’, too.
In a full announcement, the band wrote: “Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds are sad to announce that due to illness Martyn Casey will not be joining the forthcoming UK and European tour.
“Colin Greenwood will stand in on bass for these shows. The band send Martin their love and best wishes.” See the post in full here:
Last year, following the release of his book Faith, Hope & Carnage, Nick Cave spoke to NME and revealed what fans can expect from his latest album, which arrived last Friday (August 30).
When asked if he was pouring more love into his music, he responded: “I don’t know about the music, but these days I feel a more urgent need to connect with people.
“There’s a kind of duty in that, that maybe I didn’t feel before. That I have at my disposal something that’s very valuable – to make music and I don’t want to squander that opportunity in phoning in gigs or doing half-hearted attempts. Everyone is as important as each other.”
In a four star review of the album, NME wrote: “Bad Seeds records are infamously loaded with gothic doom and gloom. Of course, this ain’t a poptastic LOLfest, and still coloured with the many shades of a life so challenging and weathered.
“But never has Cave been so freewheelin’ than on the giddy ‘Frogs’, “Jumping for love and the opening sky above” as “Kris Kristofferson walks by kicking a can in a shirt he hasn’t washed for years“. With a lust for life, the once-dark prince is letting the light in.
Cave also recently announced a 2024 UK and Europe tour set to kick off in Germany this September, continuing through October before a UK leg in November. You can buy tickets here (UK and Ireland) and here (Europe).
