The Belle Game Announce North American Tour Dates
The debut album Ritual Tradition Habit from Vancouver quintent The Belle Game is - I must admit - a record I caught on to only recently - which is pretty surprising to me since it was almost instantly impossible to not be drawn in as a listening to their multi-layered orchestral gloomy pop highlighted by singer Andrea Lo's hauntingly beautiful vocals.
The band, coming off strong album buzz and a noteworthy turn at CMJ last fall recently announced a North American tour (dates below) including a slew of appearances at SXSW. If I were you and I was going to be swilling margaritas in the sunshine come March (which you never know, I might just be doing exactly that), I would put them on my not to be missed-list immediately before they end up on everyone else's.
