Dean Wareham

In the organizer's words:

Dean Wareham will perform with his band and play songs from his solo and band career.

Dean was born in Wellington, New Zealand. He moved to New York as a teenager in 1977 and attended high school, where he met his future Galaxie 500 bandmates. He graduated from Harvard University with a degree in social sciences. In 1987, he founded Galaxie 500, which released three albums, all produced by Kramer and released on Rough Trade. In 2024, a new compilation of B-sides and previously unreleased tracks appeared: Uncollected Noise New York '88-'90. Wareham's next band, Luna, recorded seven albums for Elektra and Beggar's Banquet (including Penthouse, which made Rolling Stone's '90s Best Albums of the '90s list), followed by three albums as Dean & Britta (with his wife Britta Phillips) and two solo albums. His most recent release, also on Carpark Records, was a vacation album in collaboration with Britta and Sonic Boom.

His memoir Black Postcards chronicles his years in indie rock and was published by Penguin. He has also co-composed soundtracks and appeared in several of Noah Baumbach's films, most recently White Noise.

"That's the Price of Loving Me" is Dean's brand new album and his first collaboration with producer Kramer since 1990's 'This Is Our Music' by Galaxie 500.
