STANDING ON THE CORNER

Genre-defying NYC ensemble Standing on the Corner announced a Brooklyn show at Elsewhere Zone One on September 16 (tickets). It’s their only upcoming live date at the moment.

HINDS

Hinds were scheduled to support Future Islands on some of their US tour dates in September, but they’ve been forced to cancel. “We are not making it to the USA for the September tour with Future Islands,” they write. “US government is not giving visas in the embassy in Spain so we just can’t fly and work there. We are gonna keep trying as hard as we’re doing now to make October festivals and shows happen. Don’t know what else to say, our mood is on the floor and all our plans are falling apart. Hope you had a better summer than us. See you soon (?)

WE WERE PROMISED JETPACKS

We Were Promised Jetpacks postponed the fall leg of their upcoming tour to 2022 due to COVID. “We were hoping to celebrate a joyous return to the stage with you all sooner rather than later,” they write, “but the uncertainty around international travel and the ever changing COVID-19 situation means it’s just not possible.” See the new dates HERE.
