MS MR has announced a string of intimate underplay headline dates around the world this spring, including June 10th at The Victoria, London. The band first performed a handful of new tracks at last month’s SXSW Music Festival, leaving Billboard to exclaim, “The duo displayed a shimmery new sound that blends disco and even hip-hop flourishes, which the crowd ate up, singing along.” In addition to their headline shows, MS MR will also perform at this year’s Lollapalooza festivals in both Chicago and Berlin as well as Osheaga Festival in Montreal. See below for all dates.
MS MR’s widely praised debut album, 2013’s Secondhand Rapture, hit #2 on Billboard’s Heatseekers Album chart and spawned the Alternative radio and Radio 1 playlist hit “Hurricane,” which spent nearly 30 weeks in the Alternative Top 10. Revered by press from The New York Times to VOGUE, Pitchfork to USA Today, the band has spent much of the last two years touring the globe, joining fellow musicians Marina And The Diamonds, Bastille, Jessie Ware and Grouplove on the road, in addition to playing major festivals including Coachella, Glastonbury, Bestival and Reading & Leeds. MS MR has performed on The Tonight Show, Late Show with David Letterman, and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, while their music has been featured on countless television shows including Game of Thrones, Pretty Little Liars, and the NFL on FOX.
