Thurston Moore (US)

Thurston Moore plays with his album line-up of James Sedwards, Deb Googe and Steve Shelley. Thurston Moore has been at the forefront of the alternative rock scene since that particular sobriquet was first used to signify any music that challenged and defied the mainstream standard. He is the founder and ringleader of Sonic Youth, the band that turned on an entire generation to the value of experimentation in rock n' roll - from its inspiration on a nascent Nirvana, to Sonic Youth’s own Daydream Nation album being chosen by the US Library of Congress for historical preservation in the National Recording Registry in 2006. His powerful support will be the solo project of the Croatian-born Dunja Ercogovac, titled Lovely Quinces, in which she drifts and kicks with the power and melancholy of the greatest.
