This is not a DJ set...

In support of their new album "The Richest Man in Babylon", the Washington, DC based THIEVERY CORPORATION will be doing a small US tour that will be culminating with a performance at Coachella on April 27. These live dates will be featuring the talents of Thievery Corporation maestro's Rob Garza and Eric Hilton and include two percussionists, bass, guitar and sitar players. The stage should be full as they are also planning to include a horn section, vocalists Emilana Torrini, Pam Bricker and Lulu as well as the MC's Notch and Sleepy Wonder.

The Thievery boys are infamous for producing and remixing material from the likes of Stereolab, Pizzicato Five, David Byrne and Bebel Gilberto. While running their own label (Eighteenth Street Lounge Music [ESL]), they've also worked extensively with Verve Records, including remixing Astrud Gilberto's "Who Needs Forever?" on the acclaimed 'Verve Remixed' disc released in 2002.
