Some choice gig announcements this morning:
Passion Pit are playing the Olympia on Sunday November 11th. While that was announced a couple of weeks ago, the support bill is what seals the deal for me – Chad Valley and new Glasgow band CHVRCHES. So that’s Hugo Manuel playing songs from his super sleek ’80s guest laden synth LP Young Hunger and CHVRCHES’ Purity Ring-esque melodic synth-pop. The gig is a Heineken Live project so tickets are free and got here from October 29th.
Chad Valley – ‘I Owe You This’ feat. Twin Shadow
CHVRCHES – ‘Lies’
