Tickets go on general sale on Saturday, January 19th.
Lysandre - written, recorded and sequenced as a complete narrative - was inspired by the events of Girls’ first ever tour in the summer of 2008. Described by Owens as, “A coming of age story, a road trip story, a love story”, the album has receive rave reviews around the globe and is being heralded as an instant classic by critics.
Lysandre is streaming in full on the New York Times website – accompanied by an in depth interview feature HERE.<http://t.co/CThn3DHW>

“…delicate arrangements for flute, strings and acoustic guitar, and vocal performances of surpassing warmth and fragility. The result – a series of dreamlike recollections of one turbulent summer – is mostly irresistible.” – The Guardian

"It's a deeply considered concept project instead of a collection of singles…the album by turns can feel foreboding, joyous, full of possibility or unbearably melancholic…His body of work thus far is significant and increasingly varied, as is his profile. No longer a local kid with a band and backstory, Owens can hold his own against international all-stars…" - The Fader
