STEELY DAN ANNOUNCE SUMMER/FALL NORTH AMERICAN TOUR "Mood Swings 2013: 8 Miles To Pancake Day" Begins July 19 At Revel's Ovation Hall

Revel Beach, Atlantic City, NJ (April 15, 2013)- Legendary jazz-rock icons Walter Becker and Donald Fagen have announced that STEELY DAN will hit the road again in 2013, taking their Mood Swings: 8 Miles To Pancake Day Tour to over four dozen stops throughout North America, beginning at Revel in Atlantic City.  

Opening at Revel’s Ovation Hall on July 19, the tour hits major markets including Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta, and Boston, with additional special engagements to be announced soon. Tickets for several shows are on-sale now, with most on-sale dates to be announced in the coming weeks. Most shows will offer pre-sales for American Express cardmembers. 

Concertgoers can expect an evening of the same high-level of musical excellence that garnered raves from fans and critics alike, and which was described by the LA Times thusly: "Everyone gathered Friday evening was a believer — and they were treated to something close to rapture." The Chicago Sun-Times raved "This was different. This was live. This was vibrant. This was a cascade of color carried along by Fagen, Becker, eight brilliant supporting musicians and three superb backing vocalists."

Onstage, Donald and Walter will be joined by those same eight brilliant supporting musicians, now appearing as The Bipolar Allstars(featuring Keith Carlock on drums, Freddie Washington on bass, Jim Beard on keyboards, and Jon Herington on guitar), along with The Borderline Brats — three sublime, soulful songbirds. Together, they will treat audiences to selections from The Dan's extraordinary four-decade catalog, rich with infectious tunes, bodacious harmonies, irresistible grooves, and sleek, subversive lyrics, punctuated by blazing solo work and rich ensembles. As always with the adventurous Fagen and Becker, a few surprises may be in store as well.

SOUNDS OF THE OCEAN BROUGHT TO LIFE WITH "SONIC FIREFLIES" AT REVEL

Revel has unveiled “Sonic Fireflies,” an interactive sound and light installation created by renowned architect and composer Christopher Janney to guests of the lifestyle resort, which opened its doors April 2.  Inspired both by the flashes of fireflies and the sounds of the sea, “Sonic Fireflies” is a permanent installation that creates an enchanting and engaging welcome to the resort’s OceanSide walkway on the Revelry floor, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.  

This one-of-a-kind artwork created exclusively for Revel is composed of numerous elements.  First, as passersby enters the space, they will hear a series of environmental sound tracks - from breaking ocean waves and seagulls chirping to deep water sounds such as whales, porpoises and “mermaids.”  Then, by walking beneath one of the 64 "electronic fireflies," they will trigger soft accents of flutes, marimbas, tabla drums and oboes paired with the flash of a colored light.  Each firefly unit contains a small audio speaker, a full-color computer-controlled LED light and sonar sensor detecting movement throughout the space. At certain times of the day, structured patterns of light and sound, or “The Ghost” as Janney calls it, will also appear to simulate a group of fireflies flying through the space all at once.
