The Soft Pack Announce Fall Tour Dates, Record New Album

Los Angeles transplants and irreverent rockers The Soft Pack are set to tour this fall at a slew of North American venues. Before embarking on a headlining tour, they'll open three California shows for France's Phoenix. The four-piece, who play stripped down, straight ahead rock ‘n roll, have had quite the year: They've had a successful residency at LA's venerable venue, Echo, criss-crossed the US and Canada on an NME sponsored tour with White Lies and Friendly Fires, and found a new home with Brooklyn-based label Kemado Records. In anticipation of the release of their debut LP (date TBD), which they will record with Eli Janney (Obits, Secret Machines) in Brooklyn this August.
