Plants & Animals - new album, video & 2010 tour dates
Plants and Animals‘ sophomore album, La La Land, will be released April 20th on Secret City Records. The band has much in the works leading up to this release – a striking new video for the new single “The Mama Papa,” several shows at SXSW, and a complete North American tour which will take the band through all the major cities and beyond.
Plants and Animals randomly play NYC this evening (3/10), but it’s as opener for Broken Bells at Music Hall of Williamsburg, a show that sold out instantly. Don’t have a ticket? Don’t worry there are more chances to see them over the next few months, especially if you’re going to SXSW where they have six shows scheduled including the BrooklynVegan/M For Montreal show at Galaxy Room. Then in April, one day after the release of their album (one track is streaming at the label’s website) they kick of a tour that keeps them on the road until June 9th when they play Bowery Ballroom (no tickets yet). All dates and that new video with cover art and tracklist, below…
