Definitive Jux has announced that Aesop Rock will be gracing us all with his manic, mind-altering presence for thirty-nine tour dates this Fall in support of his forthcoming album, None Shall Pass, due out August 28.
Performing alongside the mastermind MC will be Rob Sonic and Blockhead, both present on the new release, as well as DJ Big Wiz, The Octopus Project, and Black Moth Super Rainbow.
Just past thirty years old, Aesop Rock, born Ian Matthias Bavitz, has spent the last two years working on None Shall Pass with long-time friend and partner Blockhead. The finished product is a body of work dedicated to Bavitz’s look at the past three decades of his life, an act, according to Bavitz, of no small importance.
Aesop Rock‘s tour begins September 8 and has Bavitz on the road for over two months. You might as well keep him company.
