More live dates ahead for Ra Ra Riot

I caught the band earlier this year (see review and interview elsewhere on this blog) and they put on a great show...

 

Following a run of spring tour dates with The Postal Service and The Shins and summer festivals, Ra Ra Riot headlines tour dates across the U.S. this fall.

 

The band just released a limited edition of their new album Beta Love on cassette tape via Workingman Records with only 100 copies made available in three colors. The band also has a new remix of “Angel, Please” remixed by Little Daylight.

Songs on Beta Love are informed by the works of cyberpunk novelist William Gibson and futurist Ray Kurzweil, and the album marks the band’s first recording as a four-piece with members Wes Miles on vocals, Milo Bonacci on guitar, Mathieu Santos on bass and Rebecca Zeller on violin.

 

Formed in the basements and attics surrounding Syracuse University in 2006, Ra Ra Riot released their debut The Rhumb Line on Barsuk in 2008.
