Alexis Taylor has announced solo lives dates in July.  The Hot Chip frontman will perform in Los Angeles at The Mint on July 13th and in New York City at Joe’s Pub on July 14th in support of his beautiful and engaging new album Await Barbarians.  Await Barbarians will be released on June 17th via Domino Records.  In addition to the live dates, Taylor announced DJ sets with fellow Hot Chip bandmate Al Doyle at Verboten in NYC on July 10th, in San Francisco at Mezzanine on the 11th and in Los Angeles at Avalon on July 12th.  All dates listed below.

Last week, Alexis Taylor released the music video for the single “Without a Crutch (2)”.  PRESS HERE<http://smarturl.it/WithoutACrutch> to watch the video, which was directed by Ben Stockley at Herald St Gallery.

Await Barbarians is a record whose warm tones draw you in, whose sequencing asks of the listener an uninterrupted session of close listening, and whose sound world reminds us of the pleasures of all that is quiet in music. It is rich in deep insight and profound feeling, a truly significant album by one of the country’s most continually arresting musicians.

Await Barbarians will be available on June 17th on CD, standard LP and Digital. Copies of the LP purchased through Dom Mart or indie retailers will include a bonus 7” featuring the tracks “I Hope” (a Bobby Charles cover), b/w “Song Of Long”. Buy the album through Dom Mart<http://www.dominorecordco.us/usa/albums/01-04-14/await-barbarians> and iTunes<http://smarturl.it/AwaitBarbarians>.
