After 45 years of myth, mystery, and anticipation, The Residents are taking their landmark 1979 album Eskimo on the road for the very first time. Each show will feature a full-length live performance of Eskimo – a theatrical, immersive experience reimagined from the original master recordings.
The “Eskimo Live! Tour” is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness one of the most enigmatic and influential art collectives in music history breathe new life into one of their most groundbreaking works.
