The North American dates kick off in Queens, N.Y. at The Meadows Music And Arts Festival Oct. 1-2, and continue until Nov. 26 in Dallas. During that stretch there is a run of three shows in Mexico Oct. 5, 7 and 8.

After North America the band is locked in for U.K. dates from Dec. 13 in Manchester, England, to Dec. 22 in Cardiff, Wales.  In the midst of that run, the band has a two-night stand at The O2 – London, of which one show sold out in three hours.

The summer is all about festivals for the former Hotstar act. Including appearances this week at Lollapalooza and that festival’s The O2 – London, the band has 14 festival appearances scheduled in the U.S., Europe, Asia and the Pacific through September. There are also a number of headline dates set for South America.

The 1975 made waves with the release of its album I Like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it, blending ’80s-style synthesizers with R&B and rock influences for a distinct, upbeat sound. The band has been releasing a steady stream of music videos for the album’s content since last year, and the latest one come out earlier in the month.

Here’s a good example of the band’s sound and aesthetic style:
