Another Big Thief is coming to Dublin. No, not The Pope or Donald Trump, Adrianne Lenker. Her band mate Buck Meek was in Dublin recently for a show at The Grand Social and now Lenker will follow suit with a solo show in the New Year.

Following the success of Big Thief in recent years Lenker decided to reflect upon these experiences in a more personal way by recording a solo album ‘abysskiss’, out October 5th via Saddle Creek.

“I want to archive the songs in their original forms every few years,” explains Lenker. “My first solo record I made was Hours Were the Birds. I had just turned 21 and moved to New York City where I was sleeping in a warehouse, working in a restaurant and photographing pigeons. Now five years later, another skin is being shed.”

Adrianne Lenker, live at The Button Factory, Dublin. Tickets €16.50 inclusive of booking fee – on sale Friday at 9AM
