Cut in Electric Lady Studios – the birthplace of Horses some 37 years ago – Banga comes as a result of a four-year creative streak, ticking things off the Patti Smith ‘to do’ list. In the last two years, she appeared in Jean-Luc Godard’s video polemic, ‘Film Socialisme’, published her award-winning memoir, ‘Just Kids’ documenting her friendship with Robert Mapplethorpe, and collected an honorary doctorate from Rowan University.
She knows her audience. It’s why the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member will be far from home this summer supporting the release of “Banga,” her first album of original music in eight years. MORE HERE
Patti will be opening for Neil Young & Crazy Horse on many of tour dates as well.
