Operators

Operators, the current band of Dan Boeckner (Wolf Parade, Handsome Furs, Divine Fits), put out EP 1 last year and are planning to release their debut full length this year. Ahead of that though, they’ve dropped a new single, “Ecstasy In My House.” It’s brighter and bigger sounding than anything on the EP, and unmistakably the work of Boeckner. Check it out below.

As discussed, they’ve got a tour with The New Pornographers coming up, but unfortunately no NYC show scheduled at the moment. They were last here opening for Future Islands at Terminal 5 earlier this month.
