Big Black Delta hit the road today for a extensive run of U.S. live dates. Kicking off tonight at Electric Factory in Philadelphia, PA and winding down on September 7th in Los Angeles, CA, the group will support Cursive, M83, and Jane's Addiction, and also play select headlining dates. See below for a full list of dates.
Big Black Delta (the brainchild of former Mellowdrone member and M83 collaborator Jonathan Bates) are touring in support of "Ifuckingloveyou" (Remixes), the new digital EP available at all digital retailers. The EP features the group's first single "Ifuckingloveyou" and a variety of remix interpretations.
Big Black Delta doesn't simply begin and end with the music - from the explosive live show featuring dueling drummers, live vocals, dancing and an orchestrated light show using visual elements of the bespoke album artwork (created by Jonathan himself and creative director Caspar Newbolt), this project is an audio visual assault to the senses in the best possible way.
