Home Alone are proud to present: Simon Joyner (Omaha, USA) and Peter Jefferies

In February and March, the world-renowned American singer-songwriter Simon Joyner is heading to New Zealand for a series of intimate shows. In Wellington he will be performing alongside New Zealand underground icon Peter Jefferies.

Joyner, who has released albums on independent labels since the early 90’s is widely regarded as one of the great songwriters of our generation. Gillian Welch calls him her favourite poet and Kevin Morby and Conor Oberst both claim him as a major influence. Despite being a songwriter’s songwriter, Joyner has flown mostly under the radar for 30 years, an underground artist who tours infrequently but has over 50 releases to his name, including 19 albums. He’s here in New Zealand, playing a handful of shows in support of the release of his newest album, Coyote Butterfly.

"Simon Joyner, who recently turned fifty, has been quietly making records for a small cult of dedicated fans since 1990. Hovering above the intersection of chaos and beauty, the Omaha-based songwriter’s vivid and imagery-rich songs occasionally recall Leonard Cohen at his most personal and apocalyptic, while always revealing Joyner’s affinity for the fearless, unpredictable sounds of the noise and experimental scene on which he cut his teeth . .

"Jefferies populates his songs with strong characters and real aches." - Pitchfork
