Primus announces 3D tour

Primus is excited to announce a spring tour, featuring a 3D-enhanced live musical performance and two sets per evening. This groundbreaking tour will provide a one-of-a-kind psychedelic experience, further enhanced by the fact that every show will also feature Quad Surround Sound. Primus teamed with 3D Live from Burbank, CA to create original 3D content for the tour. Audience members will be given 3D glasses in order to fully experience a visual and audio performance like no other. Additionally, Les Claypool's Duo De Twang will be playing shows on both the East and West Coasts this spring, and tour dates are at LesClaypool.com. Full tour dates are below.

Recently, Primus released the video for "Lee Van Cleef," premiered via TeamCoco.com. Primus also debuted the video for the single "Tragedy's a' Comin'", which premiered on IFC.com in a three-part series (part 1, part 2, part 3).

Primus' latest album, Green Naugahyde, was produced and engineered by Les Claypool in his personal studio, Rancho Relaxo, in Northern California, and features Claypool, long-time guitarist Larry LaLonde and drummer Jay Lane. Lane was in an early lineup of the band, and was also in Sausage, a 1994 reunion of the 1988 Primus lineup. Green Naugahyde is a Primus record with all of the magic and mystery that phrase entails-and while no one can say for sure what the future will hold in store for the band, the most important thing is that the album exists and will inevitably hold its own in the band's impressive cannon of music.
