(PR) The dynamic duo of Wreckless Eric & Amy Rigby will be touring the U.S. in celebration of their most recent release, their debut release. Their U.S. tour starts July 7 in Pittsburgh, PA and ends July 28 in Cleveland, OH. The pair are currently working on their second joint project, an as-yet-unnamed album of covers
Wreckless Eric was one of the original Stiff artists, releasing the legendary Whole Wide World back in 1977. Since then he has made countless albums in different guises, moving between bubblegum pop, grunge, psychedelic and techno but always remaining true to the DIY spirit of his early Stiff days. His last, Bungalow Hi, released in 2004 was described by Andrew Weatherall as sounding 'like Bo Diddley trying to outdo Aphex Twin'.
Amy Rigby started a country band in eighties New York City, went on to form girl group The Shams, and began her solo career in 1996 with the US hit album Diary Of A Mod Housewife. Her five solo albums embrace pop, country, folk-rolk, Merseybeat, psychedelia and beach music.
