Casiotone for the Painfully Alone goes full band for BotH Tuesday

Casiotone for the Painfully Alone isn’t about to change his moniker, but maybe everything else behind it. The once solo electronic musician Owen Ashworth (born of Redwood City, CA) has committed to a full-band for his latest record Vs. Children (Tomlab), and is on the road performing in both past and present styles. The tour is stopping in the city at Bottom of the Hill tomorrow night with local openers David and Joanna and Ashworth’s brother Concern (9pm, $10).

CFTPA collectors are already used to accruing demo versions, covers and compilation tracks like they’re sacred Pokemon cards, but the lazier folk might be interested in Advance Base Battery Life (Tomlab), a rarities and b-sides compilation released in February.

If you make the show tomorrow night, you might consider buying as much merchandise as you can to donate to the CFTPA wrecked car fund.
