<b>Syd </b>and <b>Matt Martians </b>– will release their brand new album, <b><i>Ego Death</i></b>,
<b>on June 29<sup>th</sup></b> (Columbia Records). To celebrate the anticipated release, the band will be hitting the East Coast at the end of the month to play three very special New York shows, including opening for British electro-dance duo,
<b>Basement Jaxx</b>, at <b>SummerStage in Central Park on July 1<sup>st</sup></b>. It’ll be the first time fans will hear the new material, live, with the full
<b>Internet</b> band. See below for the show’s official flyer and show dates.<b><i><span style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:106%"><o:p></o:p></span></i></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Although lead by the core duo of <b>Syd</b> and <b>Matt</b>, when they play live,
<b>The Internet</b> is a full-fledged, stomp ‘n soul band – a six-person outfit whose youngest member is 17. They began playing as a full band in order to tour behind their sophomore album,
<i>Feel Good</i>, which allowed all the band members to contribute their talents to
<b><i>Ego Death</i></b><i>. </i> As such, the band’s third record is their most evolved to date, featuring guest appearances from the likes of
<b>Janelle Monae, Tyler, the Creator, </b>and<b> Vic Mensa</b>. It’s a heady mix of confessions and come-ons, shiny Rhodes keyboard glimmers, chugging drums, slinking bass lines, and Syd’s honeyed voice anchoring the mix – all played by musicians who are carrying
the soul torch for the new generation.<o:p></o:p></p>
