PJ Harvey by Steve Gullick
PJ Harvey announces her first North American tour in seven years.
PJ Harvey has detailed a run of North American tour dates which will follow her summer of European outdoor and festival appearances.
Dates are due to begin at The Anthem in Washington D.C., while two nights have been booked at Terminal 5 in New York on September 15th and 16th.
The tour news has been marked with the release of a video for Seem An I, a collaboration with actor Ruth Wilson.
“Ruth and I became friends after working together on Clio Barnard’s film Dark River,” Harvey said. “I have always greatly admired Ruth’s work as an actor, so had long harboured a dream that we might work together again in some way.”
When the opportunity to work with Colm Bairéad came up I knew him to be a director Ruth thought highly of, as I did, so it felt right to ask her if she would star in the film. I find the resulting short film beautiful and moving for having Ruth’s magical presence, and Colm’s unique vision.
