A Winged Victory for the Sullen going on tour, appearing on Jon Hopkins' 'Late Night Tales' mix (dates, stream)
AWVFTS
Ambient duo A Winged Victory for the Sullen (aka Stars of the Lid’s Adam Wiltzie and pianist/composer Dustin O’Halloran) released their sophomore album, Atomos, last year via Kranky, which ended up on a few year-end lists. They’ll continue supporting it on tour this year with dates overseas in February and a US tour in the spring. The tour hits NYC on March 24 at Le Poisson Rouge. Tickets for that show are on sale now. All dates are listed below.
AWVFTS’s song “Requiem For The Static King 1” will be featured on Jon Hopkins‘ upcoming installment of the Late Night Tales series, which is due March 1. That also features music by Darkstar, Holy Other, Jonsi & Alex, Alela Diane and more, and has Jon Hopkins covering Yeasayer‘s “I Remember.” You can listen to an album sampler, with the tracklist, below.
