Yeasayer Announce Special Fan Show & September UK Tour

Yeasayer have announced a very special fan show at The Lexington on Wednesday 11th July, ahead of their Latitude performance the following weekend. Continuing to show special appreciation to their fans, after their personal touch with first track ‘Henrietta’ (sent out by post to 200 fans), the show was first announced via Yeasayer’s mailing list this morning, before any tickets go on sale to the general public.

Yeasayer will release their anticipated new album 'Fragrant World' on 20th August on Mute, the follow up to 2010’s crossover hit 'Odd Blood'. Having set the internet alight with the teaser track ‘Henrietta’ last month, as well as Zane Lowe’s Hottest Record In The World Right Now on Radio 1, the psychedelic experimentalists from Brooklyn are set to make an assured return with their most accomplished album to date.



'Odd Blood' was widely regarded as one of the best albums of 2010, hitting everyone’s end of year lists. A hard act to follow, certainly, but 'Fragrant World' does not disappoint. Produced once again by Yeasayer themselves (and mixed by Dan Carey), it is a wholly immersive record. Keyboards clank and wheeze, tiny claps stumble against busted drum machines, and there's very little obvious guitar. It is an album that grapples with the schizophrenia of the modern world by gathering piles of electronics and moulding them into something vast and rather gorgeous.

A full UK tour has been announced for September, calling at London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire on the 27th. Yeasayer Tickets go on sale tomorrow morning, Friday 15th June, at 9am.

July 13th - Latitude Festival
Sept 27th - London O2 Shepherds Bush Empire
