MIIKE SNOW ANNOUNCE FULL NORTH AMERICAN HEADLINING TOUR THIS SPRING
Tour Dates Kick Off March 22 In Atlanta and Continue Through April 15 in San Francisco
 Miike Snow |
Following their wildly successful tour throughout North America this fall, the Downtown Records/Universal Republic trio Miike Snow are eagerly returning to the U.S. in Spring 2010 for their second headlining tour. The tour begins March 22 in Atlanta and continues across the country, wrapping up April 15 in San Francisco.
Receiving great reception for their live translations of the highly refined electronic compositions featured on their self-titled debut, the combination of Swedish producers and multi-instrumentalists Christian Karlsson and Pontus Winnberg, along with New York-based songwriter Andrew Wyatt, expand on their dynamic sound with a six-piece band.
The songs of Miike Snow have recently been featured on primetime TV: twice on the third season of Gossip Girl, with “Plastic Jungle” ushering in the new season and “Animal” closing out the third episode with it’s now widely known anthemic chorus. The band is now gearing up for their follow-up single to the groundbreaking debut of “Animal” with “Silvia,” an ode that follows its’ predecessors pop intelligence.
