Lou Reed's Metal Machine Trio will embark on a UK and European tour on April 17th, when they perform what is described as “A Night of Deep Noise.”
Featuring Lou Reed (processed & unprocessed guitars & mini continuum), Ulrich Krieger (tenor sax & live-electronics), and Sarth Calhoun (live processing & continuum fingerboard), the Metal Machine Trio concerts, although influenced and inspired by Reed’s seminal 1975 album 'Metal Machine Music', won’t duplicate the original album, but will instead opt for entirely new unique music, noise and soundscapes.
