TORTOISE SETS FEBRUARY TOUR DATES IN SUPPORT OF BEACONS OF ANCESTORSHIP
 Tortoise |
Tortoise, the world-renowned Chicago music pioneers, announces their first 2010 dates, hitting several cities that they didn't get to visit in 2009. Beacons of Ancestorship is the band's first record in over five years and continues to demonstrate their ability to push boundaries, remold their sound and yet still retain a sense of cohesion - a singular Tortoise mood/feeling/sound that is truly their own.
The band recently completed an extensive European tour where they collaborated with Cluster at the Royal Festival Hall in London, recorded an improvised BBC studio session with Colin Newman (Wire), and took part in the 10th Anniversary ATP Festival in Minehead, England.
Check out "Prepare Your Coffin" from the new album right here, and view the song's video here:
