Noah and the Whale & their film are touring, playing 3 nights @ Mercury Lounge in NYC & the movie @ Pianos (dates)

Former Noah and the Whale member, and occasional collaborator, Laura Marling, will be in NYC later this month (for CMJ).

Not long after that, the UK’s Noah and the Whale be here themselves, playing a three-night run at Mercury Lounge from November 2nd through the 4th. Tickets are on sale now.

One day prior to those three shows (November 1st), The First Days Of Spring, the directorial debut of Noah And The Whale’s Charlie Fink, will be screening at Pianos‘ Upstairs Lounge. Fink will be on hand to conduct a Q&A after the film (one of only two such events). Entry is listed by the band as first come, first served. (Just the film is also at Angels and Kings on Oct. 20th.)

The film shares a name with a Dali painting, and with Noah and the Whale’s new album, which came out October 6th on Cherry Tree. Trailers for the film and tour dates (for the band and for the movie) are below…
