Jon Rauhouse News

Some of you eagle eyed viewers out there might have spotted three Neko Case tour dates up in the “On Tour” section of the site, which have now disappeared.

Well the dates are still going ahead but Jon isn’t part of the band, so I’ve taken them down. You can get the information from Neko’s site, so get along and support great live music even if it is Rauhouseless

Jon has been hired, along with Tom V. Ray and Barry Mirochnick – Kelly Hogan and Paul Rigby are playing with Neko – by Jakob Dylan for his upcoming tours. So he’s currently rehearsing for those shows. I’ll get the dates up as soon as I get ‘em.

In the words of the man himself…

Neko band was going to take a bunch of time off so its great to be employed.

Jon has also uploaded a video of himself playing with Joey Burns & John Convertino (of Calexico) in Tacoma, which I’m just about to add to the site.

I met up with Jon at the recent gig in Glasgow, at the Oran Mor on Sept 7th, he was in top form as was Neko Case and her band – Jon, Paul Rigby, Barry Mirochnick, Tom V Ray & Kelly Hogan – who put on a great set, from the new album, “Middle Cyclone”, and some old favourites.

Some dark and blurry pics from side stage are up on the site in the “On Tour” “Tour Pics” section.

There’s also a couple of videos up on the site as well, both are from the soundcheck with Jon putting his pedal steel, Eastwood and Epiphone through their paces, along with a bit of Paul Rigby. It’s in the “Video” section of the “On Tour” pages.

The tour of the UK still has a number of dates to go so if you can get along and enjoy a great band play some top class music.

If you downloaded the NPR podcast of the Neko Case show from Washington’s 9:30 Club on April 9th that I posted about a couple of weeks about then you would have heard Kelly Hogan talk about her, Kathleen Judge and Jon taking to the air in some old time planes.

Here’s what the fella himself has to say about it…

Out on tour in Washington DC, I got a chance to take a ride in a 1945 T-6G Texan. That is a World War 2 era trainer airplane. The pilot is Kelly Hogan’s brother, Skip Hogan. What an experience and what a day. – Jon Rauhouse

It was all thanks to the National Capitol Squadron of the Commemorative Air Force.

NPR.org has a free download of the recent Neko Case concert from Washington, D.C.’s 9:30 Club on April 9th.

Also up on the site are two more full gig downloads as MP3:

From 2006 at Washington, D.C.’s 9:30 Club

Jon appears on the new Neko Case album “Middle Cyclone” which is scheduled for release on March 3rd next year (2009).

Middle Cyclone was produced by Case with Darryl Neudorf and recorded in Tucson, Brooklyn, Toronto, and Vermont. It features Case backed by her core band – guitarist Paul Rigby, bassist Tom V. Ray, backing vocalist Kelly Hogan, multi-instrumentalist Jon Rauhouse, and drummer Barry Mirochnick – along with numerous guests including M. Ward, Garth Hudson, Sarah Harmer, and members of The New Pornographers, Los Lobos, Calexico, The Sadies, Visqueen, The Lilys, and Giant Sand, among others. In addition to twelve new songs written by Case, Middle Cyclone includes covers of ‘Never Turn Your Back on Mother Earth’ by Sparks, and “Don’t Forget Me” by Harry Nilsson. Anti Records
