TOM MORELLO: New Performance Footage Available
November 7, 2008Video footage of TOM MORELLO: THE NIGHTWATCHMAN performing "One Man Revolution" on November 1, at the Fillmore in San Fransisco, California can be viewed below. Also available is a clip of Tom playing the RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE hit song "Guerrilla Radio" at the November 3, 2008 in-store appearance at Easy Street Records in Seattle, Washington.
Tom Morello released his solo album, "The Fabled City", on September 30. The 11-song album, produced by Brendan O'Brien (BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN, PEARL JAM),is the first release to bear the political and social activist's birth name and features appearances by SYSTEM OF A DOWN's Serj Tankian and Shooter Jennings. With more complex electric arrangements than displayed on the sparse solo debut "One Man Revolution", "The Fabled City" is the synthesis of his groundbreaking work as an innovative rock guitarist and revolutionary acoustic troubadour. For the first time, this album bridges the gap between Tom Morello, the acoustic protest singer and Tom Morello, the guitar legend.
The tour in support of "The Fabled City" displays both sides of Morello's guitar prowess with both an acoustic set and full-band electric set performed each night. In regards to the format of the performances, Morello stated, "On The Fabled City Tour, I will be playing both acoustic and electric guitar. I want to start off with the darker acoustic songs and then build to some of the wildest electric guitar playing I have ever unleashed on stage in my career. The idea is half Dylan/half Hendrix. I have been practicing my ass off and can't wait to rock."
