Surfer Blood @ Market Hotel in February (more by Dominick Mastrangelo)

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart will be at Other Music for Record Store Day. It’s their only NYC date at the moment. Their tour with Surfer Blood and Hooray for Earth doesn’t start til June (and doesn’t have an NYC date yet). All of those dates are below.

Before then, Surfer Blood will play a show at Princeton on Thursday (tonight) and SUNY Purchase Friday (4/16) for Culture Shock.

For Record Store Day, Surfer Blood will be dropping a split single with Holiday Shores. One side is Surfer Blood’s “Take It Easy (live)” featuring Marnie Stern, and the other is Holiday Shores’ “Your Motion Says,” an Arthur Russell cover. Russell’s disco-burner original is below along with video of Marnie performing with Surfer Blood at Cameo on New Years Eve.

Surfer Blood was recently featured on the web show Dirty Laundry. Video of that show and all tour dates (plus details on Hooray for Earth’s Cinco de Mayo show at LPR) are below…
