Canadian garage-rockers Japandroids have announced a London show (as well as some festival dates and European gigs), following the release of their critically-acclaimed second album ‘Celebration Rock’.
The new dates, starting this August, will take them through September and includes Pitchfork's Music Festival in November. This comes on the heels of the rapturously received new record 'Celebration Rock' and their recent North American tour, where they have sold out shows in Seattle, Portland, SF, LA, San Diego, Denver, Chicago, Toronto, NYC, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, DC and Vancouver. The band start things off with a Converse 100 Club show in London in addition to festivals appearances at Summer Sundae and more - check below for the London details.
The long awaited follow-up to their critically acclaimed 2009 debut 'Post Nothing', 'Celebration Rock', came out on 4th June on Polyvinyl Records, debuting at Number 37 on the USA Billboard charts. The album was produced by Jesse Gander and Japandroids and has been called "one of the year's most thrilling rock records" by Rolling Stone and "a rock record for the ages" by Pitchfork - and the critics have unanimously agreed with that.
