Deerhunter @ Radio City in March (more by Benjamin Lozovsky)

Deerhunter's new record, Halcyon Digest, is due September 28th on 4AD, and the first single from that (and its b-side, "Primitive 3D") is available above. The group is in NYC for a free show at Pier 54 on August 12th with Real Estate (and a DJ set later that night at Glasslands with The Big Sleep, Ducktails and We Are All Romans). They'll also play a pool party in Jersey on August 15th.

After that, the real tour starts, with shows booked in October and November. Deerhunter plays NYC, again with Real Estate, at Webster Hall on Friday, October 15th (Casino Versus Japan are on the bill too). Tickets go on sale Friday at noon.

The Webster Hall show is part of a tour with Casino Versus Japan and Real Estate - - other future tourmates include Animal Collective's Deakin and Ducktails. (Plus the Black Lips says they have a big tour with Deerhunter in 2011.)

Deerhunter's upcoming tour dates, a flyer for the new record (which you can help put up around your town) and "Revival" live are below...
