I hope you like it,” Gordon wrote on Instagram about the clip. She also announced several tour dates in the USA there.
Gordon founded the avant-garde noise rock band Sonic Youth in 1981. The album “Daydream Nation” (1988) is still considered to be a defining moment for an entire era – Gordon was even involved in the discovery of Nirvana. When Gordon separated from co-frontman Thurston Moore (65), Sonic Youth broke up in 2011. In 2019, Gordon released her solo debut “No Home Record”.
