Mere weeks after blazing a cosmic trail through Europe this fall, West Coast pysch mainstays Wooden Shjips have announced their return for March 2019, bringing their own brand of peaceful resistance to more cities on the mainland.
The tour is a second chance to experience Wooden Shjips’ new album V., a blissed-out antidote to the anxieties of modern life, with irresistible grooves taken to new heights on stage. Hailed as “one of the best live bands around” by Louder Than War, rippling lights and pulsing projections work in perfect tandem with the music, each explosion of colour taking you deeper into the trip.
