Tapes ’N Tapes announce national tour, release cute new video
More Just Announced
Everybody’s favorite gaggle of Carleton-educated indie boiz has announced that it’ll be touring across the country through mid-October, playing at such prestigious venues as NYC’s Bowery Ballroom and Philadelphia’s World Café. Tapes ’N Tapes are kicking off the journey with an already announced June 18 gig at Rock The Garden (which is a sort of “festival” or “gathering”), where the band will be playing alongside My Morning Jacket, Neko Case, and Booker T. Jones. The band has also thrown in a couple dates at the Great Minnesota Get-Together in September. Full list of tour dates below.
The band has also released a pleasant video for “Badaboom,” the single from its latest album, Outside. If you’re into bicycling or meaningful glances, there’s something here for you. Or if you hate those things, enjoy the self-satisfaction that comes with being able to identify some of the Minneapolis landmarks that pop up throughout the video. Or if you don’t want to do that, there’s actually music in the video that you might appreciate:
