Robyn Hitchcock Trains Tour

25th ANNIVERSARY OF BELOVED ALBUM
CELEBRATED WITH LIVE DATES IN S.F., NYC, CHICAGO

Trains

Legendary U.K. songwriter-cultural jester Robyn Hitchcock has announced much anticipated U.S. dates for his I Often Dream of Trains Tour. Following the rousing response of Londoners following the first I Often Dream of Trains gig there earlier this year, eight American cities have been tapped for this unique, once-in-a-lifetime concert experience. Hitchcock along with bandmates Terry Edwards (keyboards, horns, vocals) and Tim Keegan (guitar, vocals) will perform a ‘director’s cut’ of his classic 1983 album.

“For 1983 I wanted to see what happened if I stopped playing gigs, making records or having any attempt at a career whatsoever,” says Hitchcock. “Whatever music I made was purely for myself, without trying to speak the language of the day. The result was I Often Dream of Trains.”

John Edginton (director of the recent Hitchcock documentary film Sex, Food, Death… and Insects) will be filming the NYC Symphony Space show for the Sundance Channel for the later release of a concert film document of this special evening.
