The man who sings and composes under the name Bonnie “Prince” Billy and acts under the name Will Oldham has, over the past three-plus decades, made an idiosyncratic journey through, and an indelible mark on, the worlds of indie rock and independent cinema. With his highly individualistic approach to music making and the music industry, one that cherishes intimacy, community, mystery, and spontaneity; his brilliance has captivated fans and made Bonny one of our most influential and beloved songsmiths.
Bonnie “Prince” Billy’s latest offerings include the 2019’s I Made a Place, 2020’s Superwolves (with Matt Sweeney) and Blind Date Party, a collaborative album consisting of covers made with Bill Callahan during the pandemic lockdown. 2023 will see the release of his first children’s book, based on the song “Shorty’s Ark” (from Superwolves), as well as a new proper BPB record of new songs.
OPENER: FAUN FABLES
Troubadours of animist, otherworldly folk music since 1998, FAUN FABLES are known for exquisite, visceral adventures in song and live performance. Dawn McCarthy’s writing and voice (which THE NEW YORKER described as “one of the more compelling instruments in contemporary music”) opens hearts and minds with a whisper to a rallying battle cry into her mythical world, animated by the adventurous musicality and vocals of partner Nils Frykdahl (Sleepytime Gorilla Museum). FAUN FABLES have been touring the club, theater, grass roots and festival circuits of North America and Europe since 1998, and will be releasing their eighth record on DRAG CITY RECORDS in 2023.
