Lewis Del Mar Plots Headline Run

– Lewis Del Mar

Currently on tour with Young The Giant, indie upstart group Lewis Del Mar is ready to take center stage with a full national tour that includes stops at destination festivals like Firefly, Hangout and Shaky Knees.

The band’s sound is hard to define, but the duo was recently told by “The Late Late Show” host James Corden “I really think this is going to be one of the biggest bands in the world!”

Check out a performance on “Conan” to see for yourself:

The band plays a sold out show with Young The Giant in Boise, Idaho, tonight. The tour with those guys continues until March 11 in Savannah, Georgia. Tickets to those shows are already available now, and a few other nights have sold out. Lewis Del Mar also plays Okeechobee with Young The Giant in Florida, though the former plays March 3 and the latter is on March 2.

The headline run gets underway April 19 at Higher Ground in South Bulrington, Vt. The group is playing national destinations like Thalia Hall in Chicago and Music Hall of Williamsburg in Brooklyn, N.Y. There are also festival appearances, including the closer, at Firefly festival in Dover, Del., on June 15.

This band is on the come up, so if you want to impress all of your hipster friends and tell them that you saw Lewis Del Mar before it was big, get tickets to this tour.
