Gary Numan Kicks Off Tour Dates Tonight In Sacramento
New Album Splinter (Songs From A Broken Mind) Out October 15th
Electro and industrial music pioneer Gary Numan begins a 13 date tour tonight in Sacramento, CA. The run of dates will include appearances at the Bumbershoot and Mountain Oasis Festivals, as well as supporting dates for Nine Inch Nails. See below for a full list of dates.
Gary Numan will release Splinter (Songs From A Broken Mind) on October 15th, his first new studio album in over seven years. A long-time advocate of artist independence, Splinter (Songs From A Broken Mind), will be released on Numan’s own label, Machine Music. Numan co-produced his 20th studio album with long-time collaborator and producer Ade Fenton and also features some sublime guitar work from Nine Inch Nails guitarist Robin Finck. The album was recorded in England and completed at Numan’s home studio in Los Angeles, California, following his permanent move to the US at the end of 2012.
