Following the release of their major label debut, Year Of The Caprese (out now via Columbia Records), Nashville's own funked-out electro-pop duo Cherub have announced an extensive Fall tour. "The Champagne Showers Tour 2014" will be kicking off on September 5 in Knoxville, Tennessee and will feature Ghost Beach and Gibbz as support. After delivering an outstanding performance at KROQ's Weenie Roast, playing to over 20,000 fans while on The Blow'd Tour earlier this year - with SOLD OUT shows in NYC, Chicago, Atlanta, New Orleans, Austin, and more - Cherub will also be bringing their infectious live show to a number of festivals this summer including Bonnaroo, Firefly Festival, Glastonbury and more prior to the Fall run. See full list of dates below!

The pair, consisting of Jordan Kelley and Jason Huber, recently released a brand new risqué video for their viral hit single "Doses & Mimosas" which premiered via VEVO and was recently added on rotation to MTV2 and Revolt - PRESS HERE<http://smarturl.it/DosesVideo> to watch!

Praise for Cherub and Year Of The Caprese:

"energetic hook-laden sounds with dance beats, with the smash "Doses and Mimosas" being an obvious crowd-favorite." - Billboard.com
"the duo brought a huge crowd of screaming fans with their blend of '80s sex R&B..." - KROQ
"I don't know if you've seen Cherub's video for their hit single "Doses & Mimosas" yet, but it's way, way ballsy. Like, literally, you guys." - MTV.com
"The last city you'd expect electro-pop party animals to hail from is Nashville, but Music City's resident bad boys, Cherub, proudly do just that." - Pepsi.com
"If you love 90's R&B, pop melodies, and raw lyrics about drugs, sex, and partying-and we know you do-then you need to check out Cherub" - Complex.com
"a mixture of downright sexy pop, funky electro beats... a nonstop string of live shows in which they shred on guitars, talk boxes and other on-stage accessories that turn the venue into a sort of disco-fueled brothel." - VICE's THUMP
"...an eclectic blend of indie/dance/electronic music that is further enhanced when the duo perform in-front of a live audience... infectiously catchy tunes featuring sexually charged innuendos, funky melodies...showcasing a natural progression in talent throughout while also oozing of summertime vibes." - This Song Is Sick
"They bring an effervescent approach to their self-produced R&B and pop tracks - kitschy, yet witty lyrics, understated guitar chords, and a symphony of electronic effects." - Life + Times
"If you haven't had the good fortune of listening to the viral hit 'Doses and Mimosas' on repeat, then you may not have heard of the Nashville duo that created the risqué homage to all things booze, drugs, and general give-no-fucks-ness." - DoAndroidsDance.com
"There really is no better way to describe this work of art other than groovy, funky, and truly a one of a kind. They've got this jazzy, soulful, electronic new wave pop sound you just don't hear much of these days. If this doesn't scream summer, I don't know what does." - FistInTheAir.com
"With such an awesome live performance and unique disco funk sound it's a no brainer these guys are going to be the next big thing in 2014." - GoodMusicAllDay.com
