The Renderers Japan Tour

New Zealand band The Renderers are coming to Japan for some shows in Tokyo, Kyoto and Matsumoto.

Described as deep, dark and psychedelic, The Renderers have released 11 albums in a career spanning almost 3 decades. From their first release in 1990 on New Zealand label Flying Nun Records, to the title track on Chicago’s Drag City Records New Zealand music sampler “I Hear the Devil Calling Me” to releases on legendary Philadelphia based Siltbreeze and New York’s Ba Da Bing Records, they have splattered their music across the best and the most underground of labels. The Renderers served briefly as Bonnie Prince Billy’s backing band, and he paid tribute to them with his cover of the title track of their 1998 album A Dream of the Sea, on his More Revery release, which was this year re-issued on vinyl.
