J Mascis (Dinosaur Jnr)
Mascis had thrilled us for little over an hour, making everyone's eyes twinkle as they sat back, marvelled and at times even levitated due to his astonishing guitar playing - AU Review 2012
Last here in early 2012 for The Falls Festival and multiple sold-out Sydney Festival performances, Dinosaur Jr frontman / guitar-guru J Mascis returns to Australia and New Zealand in February 2015 for Adelaide's Garden Of Unearthly Delights Aurora Spiegeltent programme, as special guest to premier ambient / noise outfit Mogwai for two shows at Perth International Arts Festival, for headline performances along the Australian east coast (including first time solo appearances in Hobart and Canberra) and for three shows on the north island of New Zealand.
The 2015 tour follows the release of Tied To A Star, the second solo album from Mascis that picks up exactly where 2011's debut Several Shades Of Why left off.
And though he plugs in for strategic, ripping solos throughout Tied to a Star, highlights like "Wide Awake" - his perfectly paired duet with Cat Power, which barely breaks a whisper - show that Mascis is now as skilled at quiet as he is with loud. Rolling Stone August 2014
