This is a rare chance to see Backworld in this intimate setting transfused
with symbolic imagery. With four studio albums released through English
esoteric label World Serpant and a series of concert dates in unique venues around Europe.

Backworld is the vision of Joseph Budenholzer, who recently returned from three years living in Scotland where he was recording the new album 'Good Infection' to be released in 2007. His band has featured a changing roster of players — collaborators including Jarboe, David Tibet, Isobel Campbell, Rose Mcdowell, Antony (of the Johnsons).

Arrangements of guitar, strings, percussion, electronics, revolve around
lyrics concerned with ecstatic religious yearnings and tales of otherworldly visions. Come With Joy!
