An Evening with Block

About this event

City Winery Boston presents An Evening with Block live on November 2nd at 7:30pm SPIN Magazine hails Block’s comeback as, “The cosmic return of an essential voice of New York City’s beloved anti-folk movement with a sound reminiscent of classic Beck.” Rolling Stone lauds Block as, “A musical wonder who challenges the conventional.” Since signing with Meridian (ECR Music Group) last year, Block has enjoyed a resurgence of meteoric proportions. A rejuvenated audience on five continents, a million streams across platforms, major press coverage, multiple editorial placements on Apple Music’s coveted ‘New In Alternative’ and ‘New In Indie’ playlists, and a just-announced U.S. tour have put Block back in the national conversation. Now, following a series of deluxe-edition reissues and a trilogy of groundbreaking singles, he releases his sixth album, Love Crash—his first new record in 13 years. On the album’s 10 tracks, songs of heartbreak and loss intertwine with Block’s characteristic vulnerability, humor, and his joy at simply being alive. “Cracked open and not sleeping, I reached for the guitar,” says Block. “In retrospect, each song ended up being the rung of a ladder that led me out of a very dark place. It was a rich vein of heartbreak to mine, and I made it out—but, just barely.” Produced by Chris Kuffner (Ingrid Michaelson, Regina Spektor), and mixed and mastered by ECR President Blake Morgan (Lenny Kravitz, Lesley Gore, Janita), this new album is the most highly-anticipated work in the career of one of New York City’s most indispensable artists.
