Telekinesis gearing up for new album and tour (dates, stream)

Telekinesis

Seattle resident Michael Benjamin Lerner will release his third album as Telekinesis, titled Dormarion, on April 2 via Merge. The album was banged out in two weeks with Spoon’s Jim Eno on production duties. You can stream the first released track from the album, “Ghosts and Creatures,” at the bottom of this post (via Stereogum). It’s a slow burner that seems ripe for a full-on dance mix.

Telekinesis, the band, are going on tour shortly after the album’s release and that will include a stop in NYC on May 9 at Bowery Ballroom. Tickets to that show go on AmEx presale on Wednesday (1/9) with the regular on-sale happening on Friday (1/11).
