Hailing from Pennsylvania, The Districts have perfected their own brand of authentic, soulful rock music and have been packing out venues across the US. The young band are currently supporting White Denim on a US tour and will play a handful of shows at SXSW in Austin, Texas next week.
Having signed to the legendary Mississippi based label Fat Possum in 2013, The Districts released a self-titled EP at the start of 2014. The record features three newly remastered tracks from their self-released album ‘Telephone’, alongside two brand new tracks. Listen to lead single ‘Funeral Beds’ on soundcloud here:
