Black Francis, frontman for The Pixies, will perform solo at Metropolis Fremantle on Sunday 28 September 2008.

This tour will see Black Francis perform in support of his two most recent releases; 2007’s Bluefinger  and 2008’s mini-album Svn Fngrs. Boisterous and meticulous, Bluefinger and Svn Fngrs have announced to the world that Black Francis’ songwriting and performance skills are as potent as ever. Bluefinger – speculated to be the material originally ear-marked for the Pixies’ new record – sees Black Francis at the top of his game. Dutch artist Herman Brood – the man widely considered to be the epitome of sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll – is heavily referenced through the album, continuing Black Francis’ penchant for expressing his unique take on the world.

Tickets are on sale Wednesday 30 July from Moshtix. I expect them to sell out.

Pre-sale tickets will be available from noon AEST Monday 28 July from Frontier Touring.
