Neko Case heads to the Bing in April

Posted By on Thu, Jan 29, 2015 at 4:21 PM

Neko Case’s upcoming quick-run tour ravages through the Pacific Northwest this April hitting Bend, Bellingham, Vancouver, B.C., and yes, Spokane. April 20, Case’s caravan stops at the dark and more intimate Bing Crosby Theatre, where fans can easily sit while listening to the indie Americana singer-songwriter (who’s also a part of the New Pornographers).

The dates correspond perfectly with the re-release of her fantastic 2006 album Fox Confessor Brings the Floor, which comes out on a limited-edition red vinyl for Record Store Day April 18.

Case, who grew up in Tacoma, has the sort of voice that beats you over the head with strength and poetic grace. Her 2013 release The Worse Things Get, the Harder I Fight, the Harder I Fight, the More I Love You was her most intimate and haunting yet. She last toured through this area performing at 2014's Sasquatch! Music Festival. 

If you’re not already, follow this lady on Twitter. You’ll be privy to such gems as:

@NekoCase “If someone's mullet is TOO crazy, are you allowed to cut it for them while they sleep?”
AND
@NekoCase “I need a police escort to the toilet.”

Tickets go on sale tomorrow at 10 am and are $35. Go to Ticketswest.com for more information.
