Le Butcherettes to support Iggy & The Stooges, Flaming Lips
The rampantly raved-about garage-punk trio Le Butcherettes announce a slew of shows for the Fall, including support dates with Iggy & The Stooges and the Flaming Lips, as well as the band’s first headlining shows on the East Coast and Chicago. The band will also perform at this year’s Fun Fun Fun Fest in Austin, TX on November 6th. Keep reading to listen to their full debut album and to see a list of tour dates!
The band’s songs and wildly cathartic live shows often draw comparisons to Karen O, Patti Smith Bikini Kill and other female-fronted rock groups. But, there’s a theatricality to Le Butcherettes that brings a further reaching sense of mystery and imagery to the band. For more on the band’s impressive back story, see the complete bio HERE.
Le Butcherettes’ full length debut, Sin Sin Sin was produced by Omar Rodriguez Lopez, who also plays bass on all of the album’s tracks, and issued the album May 10th, 2011 on Rodriguez Lopez Productions via Sargent House.
