Thurston Moore has created something resembling a supergroup for his next project. It’s called the Thurston Moore Band and he’s reunited with Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley and recruited My Bloody Valentine bassist Debbie Googe and British guitarist James Sedwards. This is yet another new endeavor following his divorce from Kim Gordon three years ago. His metal group Twilight put out their final album a few months back, he released an album with Chelsea Light Moving last year, and he apparently has a new solo album coming out in September called The Best Day, though Matador has not announced any details yet. According to the official Sonic Youth website, the new band’s first performance will take place in Germany on 8/16. Check out the rest of the Thurston Moore Band’s tour dates below.
