USA Tour november 2011

The Sophie Hunger trio is happy to announce an extensive North American Tour accompanying the fascinating TINARIWEN this November. (Watch their new video featuring TV on the Radio below). So, go check the tour dates as some trio headliner shows will be added during the next couple of weeks too. Following the invitation of the Cité de la Musique Paris, Sophie was asked to create an own piece accompanying next year’s exhibition on Bob Dylan, created by the Grammy Museum of Los Angeles. She will perform on 3 nights: 7th, 8th and 9th of March 2012. For this occasion Sophie just bought a 1954 Gibson J-50, which should be arriving some time this week, shallalalalla.
Finally, an amorous peck on the cheek to the coolest radio station in the world: KCRW Music Radio in Los Angeles who have included Sophie Hunger on their play list. So see you all very soon in LA, San Fransisco, Santa Cruz, Pomona, Tucson, Dallas, Austin, Houston, New Orleans, Orlando, Miami, Atlanta, Chapel Hill, Washington, Philadelphia, Boston, New York, Montréal...

Back on the road
We’ve been back on the road. Embraced the first days of spring in Brussels’ Botanique, at London’s Jazz Café, had some wonderful 4 shows in favourite DE and finally reached the shores of North America: New York & Montréal - it was such a blast, thank you all for being there and for all your kindness! Which is also why, upon returning, we decided to do an additional show in New York on July 2nd! Here you can check out some early transatlantic enthusiasts: The Jealous Lover, Best New Bands & After Ellen.
Also, high five ISRAEL! which has apparently been playing “let me go” a lot on the radio. Furthermore, we’re very pleased to announce additional dates in Canada this summer supporting the legendary Madeleine Peyroux on her Canadian tour and at London's Barbican on the 8th of July.
We’ve also been flattered to receive the Prix de la Création Musicale of France, for our reinterpretation of Noir Desir’s “le vent nous portera” :: Pure Charts by Charts In France. Thank you very much, France!
Please also take a look at our summer festivals and then hopefully we'll see you very soon in Germany, Czech Republic, England, Belgium, France, USA, Canada or Switzerland.
Next stop: PRAGUE - Bukowsky's via Palac Akropolis. You know what I mean...

FUNNY QUOTES ON SOPHIE HUNGER
Cantona affirme un goût pour les personnalités fortes, dont il apprend « en les observant » : Niels Arestrup, Gérard Depardieu, ou, chez les Anglo-Saxons, Sean Penn, Benicio Del Toro. Sa curiosité culturelle est sans borne : il cite pêle-mêle l'œuvre du cinéaste Bertrand Bonello, dont il apprécie qu'il soit « le disciple de Pasolini », la folk singer Sophie Hunger, une « fille magique », ou les expositions d'art contemporain qu'il enchaîne avec passion. Aux Rencontres d'Arles, l'été dernier, il a revu les photos de la « Valise mexicaine », de Robert Capa, témoignage sur la guerre civile espagnole. « J'avais vu l'expo à New York. Mon grand-père était catalan et républicain, il a été interné au camp d'Argelès, et j'avais l'idée de le retrouver sur les clichés. A Arles, j'ai fait venir ma mère, ma tante, et finalement on est sûrs à 90 % de l'avoir identifié. » De l'art comme une quête identitaire...
