Rolling Stone recently called The Drums’ debut “one of the best indie pop debuts of the year.” Their spellbinding sound takes a classic alternative sound and infuses it with a raw energy only they can create. The album and electrifying UK shows have already gained the band an NME cover. The album is out now digitally in the US and will be available in stores in September.
Tickets for The Drums & Surfer Blood’s North American Tour go on sale on July 30-31 with a band presale at thedrumsandsurferblood.com on July 28.
