Jennifer Gentle (from Italy on Sub Pop) - 2007 Tour Dates

DOWNLOAD: Jennifer Gentle – Electric Princess (MP3)

Jennifer GentileJennifer Gentle is the name of a band composed of men from Italy. Their new album The Midnight Room is out on Sub Pop.

The word “psychedelic” is often used to describe the music of Jennifer Gentle, an inevitability when you take your name from a Syd Barrett lyric. But in the case of this Italian outfit, the word is really just being used as another term for “weird.” The defining qualities of psychedelia– out-of-body transcendence, hallucinations, altered states of perception– don’t really factor into the experience of listening to The Midnight Room, Jennifer Gentle‘s second Sub Pop release.

Songs are streaming at their MySpace, and you can download one above.

In August they’ll be touring the United States with the Dodos. From August 29th-30th they play WFMU, Mercury Lounge, Sound Fix, and Luna Lounge. All tour dates below….
