As I mentioned a while back, Patrick Krief‘s new band is called Black Diamond Bay and they’re about to embark on a little tour which will bring them to NYC on Wednesday, November 5 for the first of three shows. The new self titled Black Diamond Bay LP came out in Canda in April 2008 (as far as I can tell) and I don’t believe it’s had a proper US release yet, which is a shame because I think it’s a fine album that deserves to be widely heard. To me, it sounds like a little bit of a mix between Radiohead, The Beatles, and Pink Floyd, and that’s a can’t miss recipe in my book. In case you forgot, Patrick and BDB played the excellent After The Jump Fest showcase at Pop Montreal with Delta Spirit, Mother Mother, and The Mark Inside. I’ve got some more pictures from the Pop Montreal showcase as well as all the Black Diamond Bay tour dates after the jump.
