Future Islands at FYF Festival 2014 (more by Adela Loconte)
Future Islands

Baltimore popsters Future Islands had their biggest year to date courtesy their new album Singles and ubiquitous single “Waiting on You.” As for what 2015 will bring: a visit to Australia/NZ/Singapore multi-city Laneway Festival in January. Before that, they’ll play a couple East Coast shows here in the US, including Boston and their biggest NYC headlining dates yet: Terminal 5 on January 9 with Dan Boeckner’s new outfit Operators (who they recently toured with) and fellow Baltimoreans Wing Dam.  Tickets for the T5 show go on sale Friday (10/17) at noon, with Ticketmaster, fan club and AmEx presales beginning Tuesday (10/14) at 10 AM. (Operators and Wing Dam also play the 1/7 Boston date.) There’s also an Atlanta date on the other side of their Australian tour, all are listed below.

Wing Dam released Shifter Bliss over the summer and it’s in the thick, crunchy alternapop style that was much loved in the ’90s. You can stream it in full below. You can also catch them in smaller venues than T5 as they’ll be doing a short tour in November, playing NYC at Silent Barn on November 4. The rest of that lineup is TBA but all dates are listed below.

All Future Islands, Operators and Wing Dam dates are listed, along with streams and videos, below…
