Bent Shapes share "New Starts in Old Dominion" video, touring, playing NYC Popfest

Bent Shapes

Boston’s Bent Shapes have just released a video for “New Starts in Old Dominion,” the current single from new album Wolves of Want which is out now via Slumberland. The band’s Ben Potrykus gave us the lowdown:

Our video for “New Starts in Old Dominion”, shot with our pal Evan Murphy, follows a fictional Bent Shapes as they head to a house show. Having accidentally left our guitarist, George, (played by George Francis Steinhardt IV) behind, they recruit an unwitting attendee (Luke) to play our set with us. George goes on an epic journey to find the show, and hilarity ensues. Will he GET TO THE GIG?

Bent Shapes will hit the road this weekend for a lengthy North American tour that will wrap up in NYC. They’ll play NYC Popfest on Saturday, May 21 at Baby’s All Right, a free day party that also features Snow Fairies, Spanish band Los Bonsáis, Soft Science, and UK group Design. Then that same night they’ll play Trans Pecos with Journalism. (tickets).

All dates are listed, along with the new video and album stream, below.
