Broken Bells From Coast To Coast
Released in January, After the Disco was recorded with the 17-piece Angel City String Orchestra and a four-piece choir. USA Today gave the album three and a half stars, writing that Danger Mouse and Mercer “raise their game on this sophomore outing by simply delivering fatter hooks, juicier melodies, dreamier vocals and more of the dark shimmer that enveloped the duo’s 2010 debut. The funky title track takes disco to the cosmos.”
Broken Bells’ summer plans begin in NYC with an appearance at Governors Ball Music Festival June 7.
The excursion features stops in St. Louis, Detroit, Chicago and Seattle before wrapping in Portland, Ore. The indie rock band is also headed up north with a handful of Canadian gigs including shows in Winnipeg, Calgary, Edmonton and a set at the Squamish Music Festival.
