Seattle-based folk duo Thousands have been confirmed as support for tUnE-yArDs’ UK tour next month, including their sold-out date at London’s Scala venue on 8th June. See below for dates and tickets. Thousands were last over in the UK for some headlining shows in April, following the release of their debut album ‘The Sound of Everything’.
Thousands’ music has already drawn comparisons to fellow Seattle artists and Bella Union labelmates Fleet Foxes. The pair recorded ‘The Sound of Everything’ while travelling around the Pacific Northwest states of Washington and Oregon looking for “interesting or inspiring places to record to offer something with a real sense of place.” The recordings took place in a number of varying locations including the group’s Luke Bergman's family's cabin on the Oregon coast, the banks of the Columbia River, abandoned barns and old farmhouses.
Speaking about ‘The Sound of Everything’, the duo said: “We want people to listen to this with headphones on and feel like they're immersed in these locations, and there's us, sitting next to you, playing a song.”
tUnE-yArDs are touring the UK to promote their second album ‘w h o k i l l’, which was released in April.
