Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds Announce Tour

The 19-date trek across North America will showcase the “Skeleton Tree” on the stage of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds tour. This May throughout the United States and Canada fans will be able to get tickets to the amazing show.

The line up on the tour includes Martyn Casey, Warren Ellis, Thomas Wydler, George Vjestica, Jim Sclavunos, Larry Mullins and Conway Savage, listed in no particular order. Before the North American tour begins, Cave has a string of twelve gigs in Australia, and the first few concerts will have live renditions from the material on “Skeleton Tree”.

The native Australian, Cave, has documented the making of his LP with a film called “One More Time with Feeling”. It focused on the process of recording an album after the death of his 15-year-old son. The documentary will return to theaters in December nationwide for a limited amount of time. 

The masculine name Nick is the short form of Nicholas, which is derived from the Greek name Nikolaos that means “victory of the people”. It was taken from the greek words nike that means “victory” and laos that means “people”.

The name became popular after a renowned saint, who was from Anatolia in the 4th century. This bishop saved a poor man’s daughters from prostitution. He was named the patron saint of sailors, children, and merchants. Saint Nicholas’ figure is even used for the shape of Santa Claus, who is the bringer of presents at Christmas time.
