Girl Talk announces plans to Raise the Dead, tour

Girl Talk (AKA: Gregg Gillis) has announced plans for his fourth album, and it has one mouthful of a name. Wild Peace IV: Feed the Animals, Raise the Dead, is scheduled to come out on Illegal Art Records late this spring or early this summer.

After two years of testing out new material on his audiences all over the world, Gillis said this album is still sample-heavy, but also gives his own groove a bit more room to move. No doubt you’ll be doing the same when you hear it.

However, if you just can’t wait for new material, you can catch one of the upcoming Girl Talk performances. They’re all on Fridays, so no “It’s a school night” excuses allowed.

Dates:

March
28 - Athens, Ga. @ Georgia Theatre

April
4 - Morgantown, W.Va. @ 123 Pleasant Street
25 - New Haven, Conn. @ Toads Place

May
2 - Richmond, Va. @ Toads Place / Richmond
