Shearwater’s Coming to Pullman

Filed Under Shows, Updates 

Shearwater. The band, not the bird.

Stereopathic is pleased to announce totally blown away that Shearwater is playing at the Bell Tower in Pullman on Tuesday, April 20th Friday, April 30th. The show starts at 8 PM. We’re lining up a local act to kick things off; Lawrence, Kansas’ Hospital Ships opens, followed by Shearwater’s thrilling and epic live show.

Shearwater, of course, will be touring in support of their forthcoming Matador LP, The Golden Archipelago, 2010′s follow-up to their killer 2008 record Rook. Lead single “Castaways” has been floating around for a few weeks now; nab it from Matador Records.  Billions has a glowing (but not hyperbolic) write-up. 2007′s Palo Santo and Rook leave no doubt that Jonathan Meiburg can write a thoughtful and compelling song, and that his band has struck upon a distinct and beautiful sound all its own.

What’ll the show set you back? $12 if you pay ahead, $15 if you wait till you’re at the Bell Tower door on the night of the show. Keep an eye out here for more details and eye candy, not to mention a record review and anything else we can pass along to y’all. Spread the word, tweet it and retweet it, and see you there.

    Their tiny desk concert is also off the hook:

    Aaaaahhhhhh, this is going to be so awesome! I wish I could be there for it! Very exciting news. I nominate that Pullman band who opened for Ah Holly Fam’ly to kickstart this thing off. What was their name again? Buffalo something, maybe?

    [...] We’ve mentioned it before, but it’s really worth mentioning again: Shearwater is playing at the Bell Tower in Pullman on Friday, April 30th. Check David Dalbey’s poster for the details, or keep on reading. [...]
