Spiritualized are set to play an intimate "secret" show in Los Angeles tonight (September 19).

At 50 years old, Nick Cave is showing zero signs of slowing down. Last year he took a detour from his day job as leader of the Bad Seeds to make one of the more rollicking and libidinous albums of the year (Grinderman). He and his Seeds are back this year with the excellent Dig!!! Lazarus Dig!!!

Spiritualized will be playing a club show at The Echo in Los Angeles on September 19 as part of MySpace's Secret Show series.

AP - Part way through making Spiritualized's latest album, the band's frontman, Jason Pierce, came down with a bout of pneumonia that almost killed him.
