Howe Gelb announces Australian tour
The creative force behind the extended family that has comprised Giant Sand over the years, Howe Gelb returns to Australia in 2008 for dates in October and November.

The roll call of artists who have contributed and collaborated with Howe over the years reads like a who’s who of alt-country/indie heaven – Joey Burns and John Covertino (of Calexico), Chan Marshall (Catpower), Kristin Hersh, M. Ward, Jeremy Gara (Arcade Fire), Neko Case, Vic Chesnutt, John Parish, Granddaddy and more.
