Nick Cave - an Australian singer, poet, and writer will star in this year's New Horizons festival. His concert on Wyspa Słodowa (Malt Island) on 29th July, 2011 is a part of the European tour promoting the second album by the Grinderman band.
In 2007 three musicians - Warren Ellis, Martyn Casey, and Jim Sclavunos together with Cave established the Grinderman band, known also as the Mini-Seeds. Now they are playing concerts in the United States, promoting their album released last Autumn. In summer they are going to promote the "Grinderman 2" album in Europe with Dublin, Moscow, Athens, and Ostrava being among the concert venues.
Kostas Georgakopulos, the Festival Club Director, says, "This is the last concert of the tour. Cave and his friends will stay with us for 2 days. Their last album is amazing, and in my opinion we are very lucky to have them present it to us in Wrocław. It might probably be the greatest musical event in the city this season."
