EVAN DANDO announces "BABY I'M BORED" New Zealand shows

EVAN DANDO 'BABY I'M BORED'
New Zealand shows

Celebrating the reissue of his first solo album,
‘BABY I’M BORED (2003)', EVAN DANDO will stop by New Zealand as part of his World Tour for two shows:

Emerging after The Lemonheads disbanded, Evan Dando returned to music first with a solo tour and ‘Live At The Brattle Theatre’ then came his debut solo album ‘Baby I’m Bored’.

Mature and autobiographical, ‘Baby I’m Bored’ is a stellar record that stripped Dando of his grunge label. At the time of recording, he was without the band which saw him lean more towards an achingly melodic alt-country rock sound. Self-deprecating, these are songs of decline and coming back from that.

“A beautiful album of tender reflections on life, love and drug-induced folly set in soulful, country-tinged guitar pop.” - The Independent
