*Proof of Covid-19 Vaccination Required to Enter Show
** Results from a negative COVID test will NOT be accepted for entry to this performance
ARTIST STATEMENT
We can’t wait to get back on tour and play shows again for live audiences. But we don’t want to do so recklessly. So, we are requiring proof of vaccination upon arrival at all our shows. Venue staff will have to do the same, including all stagehands and engineers. The three of us and our crew are already vaccinated, and we will get tested before the tour begins and while on tour. Refunds will be available for anyone unhappy with this requirement who purchased tickets.
ARTIST INFO
So frequently compared to the Velvet Underground that they were featured in the 1996 film 'I Shot Andy Warhol,' Hoboken-based Yo La Tengo has explored the extremes of feedback-driven noise rock and sweetly melodic pop. They've always been the band to bridge the gap between critical acclaim and indie popularity. As Yo La Tengo's career has developed since their 1984 inception, The New York Times remarks that they specialize in "guitar-driven songs about the compromise and joy of daily life."
They draw a cult-like following along with new fans who dig their sound. For the unfamiliar, think The Weepies mashed up with The Velvet Underground and hints of The Flaming Lips. Modern and timeless at the same time. Their music at various moments has encompassed folk, punk, electronica, jam, shoegazer rock, and more.
