Songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Joachim Cooder, whose Nonesuch debut album, Over That Road I'm Bound, is out this coming Friday, October 2, will perform a series of virtual in-store performances via Instagram Live of several US independent record stores this week. The sets begin on the Instagram of Music Millennium Records in Portland, Oregon, at 6pm PDT, tonight, and culminates via Electric Fetus in Minneapolis on release day. See below for all the details and links or visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.

On Over That Road I’m Bound, Joachim Cooder uses the plain-spoken songs of country-music progenitor and banjo player Uncle Dave Macon as a jumping off point, tinkering with the lyrics and reworking melodies for his chosen instrument: an electric mbira. Cooder culled songs from Macon’s vast catalog and recorded them with his band and special guests: Ry Cooder, Rayna Gellert, Juliette Commagere, Sam Gendel, Glenn Patscha, Amir Yaghmai, Dan Gellert, and Vieux Farka Touré. You can pre-order the album here.
