Population II share new single, touring with OSEES & more

Montreal’s Population II are back with their first new music in three years, new single “Beau baptême,” which is also their first release for hometown label Bonsound. (Their 2020 debut was released on Castle Face.) It’s a little trippy and a lot groovy, and you can watch the video below.

Population II will also be on tour, including a few headline club shows this summer, and dates opening for OSEES. They’ll play Brooklyn’s Alphaville on July 22, and will be back to open for OSEES at Warsaw on September 22. All dates are listed below.

Speaking of OSEES, their new album is out in August.
