This new tape entitled "à Bruxelles" is new & available via Young Girls Records. It is a collection of tracks recorded in Brussels in between 2009 and 2011. Those tracks never found their place on previous releases, and explore very different styles; the whole tape being like a diary of my musical researches during my two first brusselaar years.
Young Girls Records and Les Concerts Du Néant Absolu Et De La Mort invite you to party in Schaerbeek for this release which is simultaneous to the release of tapes by Bear Bones Lay Low and Pacific Games.
The whole evening features TG Gondard, Q.Nicolaï aka Pacific Games, K-O-B and DJ Cool Brocoli, at The Student, on Monday 30 April 2012. The entrance fee is only 5 euros and one of those three tapes will be offered at the door !!
The following TG Gondard show will take place at DOK in Gent on 16 May 2012, as an opening to Porcelain Raft. More info HERE.
On Friday 20 April i will perform as TG Gondard in Sevilla, Spain. The show will take place at the CSOA La Huelga, start 21h00, free entrance. Manuboy is also on the bill. Come enjoy the andalucia sun !
