35 years ago, on October 16th 1977 The Jam first performed in New York City at the seminal underground music club CBGB’s. It was Paul Weller’s first ever performance in the Big Apple. On May 17th Weller and his band will return to this iconic location for a private VIP event at the John Varvatos Bowery store. Tickets are not for sale for this show. Fans should visit the John Varvatos Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/JohnVarvatos for information on how to win tickets to this very special event.
Weller and his band will also make their debut performance on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon on May 17th, followed by a two-night stand at the Best Buy Theater in Times Square, New York on May 18th & 19th. Tickets for those shows are on sale now.
Paul Weller’s two New York shows will be in support of his new album Sonik Kicks, which was released on March 27th 2012 on Yep Roc Records. The album debuted at #1 in the UK and was Weller’s biggest selling first week in the US ever.
Sonik Kicks features fourteen brand new tracks: “Green,” “The Attic,” “Kling I Klang,” “Sleep of the Serene,” “By the Waters,” “That Dangerous Age,” “Study in Blue,” “Dragonfly,” “When Your Garden’s Overgrown,” “Around The Lake,” “Twilight,” “Drifters,” “Paperchase,” and “Be Happy Children.” Both Noel Gallagher and Graham Coxon appear as special guests on the album.
With Sonik Kicks Paul Weller once again shakes up his palate and stirs his influences anew. He mixes pop art punch with soulful communication; jazzy explorations into psychedelia and dub with razor-sharp melodies and abstract soundscapes with clear-eyed forest-folk.
