Stars - Sad Robots EP, free download, NYC show Saturday

“Stars introduce Sad Robots, September 1 exclusively through www.sadrobots.ca. A free and all new live version of the track “Going, Going, Gone”, a fan favorite from the band’s first LP, Nightsongs, will also be available exclusively from the website via MP3 beginning [since] that date.

Still in the throes of their theatre-as-life aesthetic and continuing to explore the art of a guarded romance, Stars will unveil the beauty and tragedy of Sad Robots with an all new live show, draped in the Sad Robots visuals while they perform songs from all four full-lengths, including 2008 Polaris Prize nominated In Our Bedroom After The War. For those lucky enough to secure tickets, a limited edition, physical copy of the Sad Robots EP will be available at each show on the tour.”

Stars play Terminal 5 in NYC tonight (Sept 20). Those unlucky people who didn’t secure tickets are in luck becaeuse the show does not appear to be sold out. All tour dates below…
