Andrew W.K. Announces ‘Human Party Machine’ 2013 North American Tour
Playtex Fresh + Sexy Wipes pitchman Andrew W.K. is getting back to doing what he does best -- rocking for hard-partying audiences across the country. The musician has revealed plans for his first-ever U.S. tour as a one-man act, and he's dubbing it the 'The Human Party Machine' trek.
The rocker, who usually plays with a full band, will perform solely with his microphone and a keyboard as he attempts to bring the party to intimate clubs and bars.
“I’m truly excited and also terrified by what will happen at these shows,” proclaims W.K. “It’s designed for maximum chaos and to put us as close to the abyss as possible. But we’re going to survive and thrive, because we’ll be in it together, arm-in-arm and heart-to-heart, becoming a human party machine made of blood, love, and courage. Get your friends together and let’s f---ing do this!”
The tour gets under way April 13 in Toledo, Ohio, with dates booked through June 7 in Springfield, Virginia.
