We’re extremely psyched to announced that we’ve teamed up with our good friends at Yours Truly to present an evening with Panda Bear, along with special guest Nite Jewel, live at Oakland’s Fox Theater on Monday, September 6. We’ve each got a pair of tickets to give away for the show; just leave a comment below or head over to YT if you’d like to attend, and we’ll pick the winners this Friday. You can also purchase tickets here while they last.
We mentioned yesterday that Portugal’s Gala Drop were invited by Panda Bear to open his show at Governors Island on September 11. The band has a new 12″ EP due later this month, and they recently sent over two gorgeous, spawling new tracks from the release. The standout so far is the shimmering and thoroughly hypnotic tropical-psych journey “RAUZE,” which we’ve had on blast for the last couple of days:

Gala Drop :: RAUZE
Gala Drop :: Untitled
Look for Gala Drop’s forthcoming 12″ EP to be released “end of September” on Golf Channel Recordings. The band also recently reissued their self-titled debut LP on gatefold vinyl, which can be purchased here.
Sunset’s forthcoming LP Loveshines But the Moon is Shining Too has already given us one of our favorite songs of the year, and today we were sent another promising glimpse at the record in the form of hazy, lilting psych-pop dreamscape “Moonlight.” Look for Loveshines… to drop digitally on September 7, with a 2xLP to follow on October 12, via Austin’s Autobus Records.
Panda Bear recently announced a handful of U.S. live dates, including a show at the Beach @ Governors Island on September 11, with special guests Teengirl Fantasy and one of Noah’s favorite Portuguese bands, Gala Drop, plus a DJ set from Avey Tare. We’ve got a pair of tickets to give away for this one; just leave a comment below or tweet @ us if you’d like to attend. Tickets can also be had here.
