Official press release:
One-man industrial doom magus, Tristan Shone, more commonly known as Author & Punisher, will bring his tectonic-shifting sound conjurings to the stage next month on a lengthy North American headlining tour. The proceedings will commence on September 17th in Los Angeles and crumble the infrastructures of fourteen venues through October 2nd in Boston. From there, Shone will take a brief respite before pillaging another fourteen venues on a second leg of the tour beginning November 3rd in Brooklyn and running through November 21st in San Diego. The trek includes a performance at Philip H. Anselmo’s annual Housecore Horror gala. Author & Punisher will be joined by special guests, atmospheric drone doom duo, Muscle And Marrow.
Comments Shone:
“This tour is 100% Author & Punisher as I intended it from day one: designed to be overwhelming, suffocating and disorienting with new tracks, a reinforced A&P-designed onstage sound and a killer touring partner in Muscle And Marrow, from Portland.”
