According to the Interpol website (thanks for the heads up NME), you will see some new and familiar faces. With the departure of Carlos D, the band have added Brandon Curtis from the Secret Machines and Dave Pajo from Tortoise/Zwan fame. I guess some people are replaceable and/or expendable. As a result of the U2 concert cancellations, there have been some new dates added.
We’d like to take a moment to introduce you to our new editions:
Two fresh faces who will be joining us live on our upcoming tours.
On Bass: Dave Pajo
Pajo has a vast body of work. He was the guitarist for Slint. He has recorded as Papa M and Ariel M. And he has worked with Tortoise, Will Oldham, Zwan, and numerous other artists. So, you know….do the math.
On Keys and Vox: Brandon Curtis
Curtis is a member of the Secret Machines. Enough said.
We are very excited and honored to be working with such talented individuals.
