Future Rock announces 2nd leg of Spring Tour, support from The Polish Ambassador and Sub Swara! NYC is now a LATE SHOW!
Future Rock announces the second leg of 2011 Spring Tour! The Northeast, Mid-Atlantic & Midwest are about to experience full-on electro-bliss. Chicago based Future Rock will hit old favorites and new stops in Philadelphia, Boston, Rochester, Albany and Fairfield CT w/ special guests for each show, as part of the 2nd leg of Spring Tour 2011.
Electro and mashup maestro, The Polish Ambassador (1320 Records), will join Future Rock on the first leg in NYC, Burlington VT and Buffalo as support. The Polish Ambassador creates 8 and 16-bit inspired synth pop, and uses a variety of triggers and midi to create a truely live show each time out. Also of note, the NYC show is now a LATE SHOW. So don't fret, you can see everything on 4/15 in NYC (The Disco Biscuits @ Best Buy Theater, FR/Polish Ambassador at Bowery Ballroom).
Brooklyn's Sub Swara will join FR for all four dates in the Midwest, plus Philly and Boston. Sub Swara's sound is meticulously crafted for both dancefloor intensity and cerebral curiosity, and ranges from dub to hip-hop, dancehall to punk rock, and all the global sounds in between.

Recorded in their hometown of Chicago during the Summer of 2009, Future Rock are prepared to release a live album capturing the raw energy of a live-electronic performance that packed the fair streets of their city, turning rooftops into dance floors and fans into maniacs hanging out of open windows. The atmosphere and the songs-six of which have never officially been released-are the best representation of Future Rock ever recorded. "Live in Wicker Park" also features live remixes of Black Moth Super Rainbow and Death from Above 1979 that are sweeping proof of Future Rock's remarkable remix skills. But that's not all. The live album is a 52-minute wall of sound that'll leave listeners wondering how three people create the rhythmic textures that seem to come from a small army, rather than just a trio. The album will be available everywhere, digitally, on May 18, 2010. Stream the song, "Romantic Rights (Live Remix)" from Future Rock's Bandcamp site: http://futurerock.bandcamp.com Live In Wicker Park Track Listing: 1. Romantic Rights (Live Remix) 2.
