Beaver Brook AssociationNeko Case Neon Grey Midnight Green Tour with Support from Destroyer
Neko Case brings the Neon Grey Midnight Green Tour to the stage with support from Destroyer. Celebrated for fearless, continually evolving songwriting and a singular voice, she arrives behind her ninth album, Neon Grey Midnight Green, a release that balances a wide, powerful sound with an intimate feel. Recorded live in the studio with a full band, the album preserves small human details like breaths and the brush of fabric to keep the performance close at hand. Released last fall to strong acclaim and marked as essential in her body of work, it also stands out because Case produced it herself. A Grammy-nominated artist who identifies as gender fluid and uses she/her pronouns, she speaks to the need for more women, nonbinary, and trans producers in music. The tour shares the album’s title and centers the creative vision that shaped it, with support from Destroyer.
