Experimental electronic music project Bassnectar is in the middle of its spring 2010 US tour. Started in early February the tour now includes 20 dates, and ends up on May 1 in New Orleans (LA). And in the end of May the project planned performance at "Summer Camp Music Festival" in Chillicothe, (IL). Bassnectar will visit Tempe (AZ), Los Angeles (CA), Santa Cruz (CA), Omaha (NE), Minneapolis (MN), Milwaukee (WI), St. Louis (MO), Urbana (IL), Cleveland (OH), Indianapolis (IN), Detroit (MI), Pittsburg (PA), Syracuse (NY), Buffalo (NY), Burlington (VT), Boston (MA), Northampton (MA), Baltimore (MD), Charlottesville (VA). Bassnectar's live show consists primarily of three major elements including a sense of unity, visuals, and sound. Lorin Ashton performs the music while the sound is by another part of the project. Usually, the sound systems are donated. Visuals consist of three large LCD screen and other lighting elements which show the work of the visual artist Videolicious. The show includes high definition photography and video with a close relation to the substance and tempo of Ashton's music. Since Bassnectar's political views are far left of mainstream American politics a sense of unity arises but they are deeply rooted in movements consisting of but not limited to peoples democracy, free speech protection, and anti-imperialism.
