Todd Rundgren Plots ‘Clearly Human’ Multi-City Virtual Tour (Rolling Stone)

Todd Rundgren Plots ‘Clearly Human’ Multi-City Virtual Tour
December 3, 2020 by Cleopatra Records

Singer talks ambitious virtual tour and shares wacky new Christmas tune

Prior to the pandemic, Todd Rundgren had always wanted to embark on a virtual tour.
“It’s an idea that I’ve been cultivating for a long time,” he tells Rolling Stone from his home in Hawaii. “The inspiration for it was the degradation of the travel network, and a lot of that was a result of climate change. As a touring musician, I realized that it’s going to become more and more common that I can’t get to the gig, that my flights have all been canceled, or there’s a flood or a fire and you can’t even drive there. So I started toying with the idea of different ways to deliver my service.”
On February 14th, the singer will make that dream a reality, virtually performing 25 sets geofenced in different cities that he would have hit on a physical trek, from Manhattan, New York, to Phoenix, Arizona. Dubbed the Clearly Human Tour — a play on his 1989 album Nearly Human — each show will emanate from a Chicago venue through March 22nd, where the Central Time zone allows for a convenient start time for each coast.

Available Now

Todd Rundren - Flappie
ADD TO CART

Todd Rundgren is proud to announce his first ever solo Christmas recording, a cover version of a wildly popular novelty song from The Netherlands written and recorded by Dutch comedian Youp van ’t Hek in 1978.

Musically, the song has the upbeat, merry bounce of a classic Christmas carol, however, the lyrics tell a harrowing tale of a young boy who discovers his pet rabbit, the titular Flappie, has gone missing on Christmas morning. As the mystery deepens, the boy begins to suspect foul play and a possible tragic end for his beloved pet…at the hands of his own parents!

SPECIAL LIMITED EDITION etched 7” vinyl, in Christmas color vinyl, hand-signed by Rundgren!
