[ With Serengeti and other special guests including Anticon DJs ]
Yoni Wolf, the frontman of WHY?, is heading out on a rap-only tour this May sponsored by his podcast, THE WANDERING WOLF. The eclectic lyricist, singer, and rapper is bringing an MC/DJ show to six cities in Arizona and California.
Best known for his unique range of styles and themes as the lead singer in the indie-rap hybrid WHY?, Yoni will be returning to his roots as a rapper. He will be performing songs spanning his entire career: early to new WHY?, cLOUDDEAD, Reaching Quiet, guest spots on songs by Alias and Themselves, remixes by Boards of Canada, Dntel, and more. But don't expect a WHY? show or a crooning Yoni next to a piano. This will be straight-up rap.
He will be joined on tour by his friend and collaborator Serengeti, the Chicago rap visionary who just released an acclaimed album with Sisyphus--the super-group, art-pop extravaganza that is Serengeti, Son Lux, and Sufjan Stevens.
Watch Yoni rapping in the new WHY? video for "Waterlines" here at the AV Club.
