SPIRIT ANIMAL ANNOUNCE SXSW PERFORMANCES
SET TO PLAY SWEETLIFE FESTIVAL ON MAY 10

DROPPING A NEW SINGLE THIS MAY
PERFORMING AT NYC’S STUDIO AT WEBSTER HALL ON MARCH 28!

[Spirit Animal- General 1 lo res]

“The group folds funk and electro into its boisterous brand of rock on this EP.” – USAToday.com<http://USAToday.com/>

“Rock, funk, dub and super-charged blues all feature in their music, which is held together by its vigor — and the walloping rhythm section of bassist Paul Michel and drummer Ronen Evron… This is one of those bands that shifts genres without a lot of fuss.”  - The Washington Post

“Spirit Animal un-cage classic rock and funk with real teeth on Kingdom Phylum. It's the kind of fiery and ferocious music that the world rarely gets anymore. At the same time, there's nothing throwback about it. These boys are the future. Get wild with Spirit Animal now...” – Artist Direct

Brooklyn-based psych/funk/pop band, SPIRIT ANIMAL, are excited to announce their SXSW 2014 showcases -- including a Samsung "Next Big Thing in Music" set on Thursday afternoon -- and a Sweetlife Festival performance on May 10 at the iconic Merriweather Post Pavilion (Columbia, MD). The festival features Lana Del Rey, Foster the People, 2 Chainz and others. The band will also play a hometown show at NYC’s Studio at Webster Hall on March 28. See full list of dates below!

Spirit Animal’s latest installment, Kingdom Phylum, landed the band on a number of “Best Of” lists in 2013 – including SPIN’s handpicked batch of new Indie Rock Christmas songs for their not-so-holiday anthem, “Come To Christmas.” PRESS HERE<http://www.nylonguysmag.com/premiere-spirit-animal-come-to-christmas/> to check out the video via NylonGuysMag.com<http://NylonGuysMag.com/>! They were also included in MTV Buzzworthy’s “30 Criminally Good Artists We Couldn’t Stop Obsessing Over in 2013” roundup.

The band will be releasing their first new track since Kingdom Phylum this May. Stay tuned for more on Spirit Animal!
