For Those who do not know Of Montreal yet here some blurb...
OF MONTREAL (USA)
Kevin Barnes, of Athens (Georgia), is the man behind Of Montreal. His albums are whimsical collections of carefully-crafted pop music assembled and sequenced in a way to compose a flamboyant psychedelic vaudeville that occasionally mimicks the ridiculously hilarious style of the Bonzo Band.
"Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer? is probably the most fun one can reasonably have while wrestling with somebody else's demons."- PASTE MAGAZINE
"If there is one thing in this world that can elevate even the weakest of lyrics from the trough of personal diary hell, it's a catchy melody. Thankfully Of Montreal overflow with them."- DROWNED IN SOUND
"The emotional gravitas only lends heft to the group's exhilarating, ever-present sugar high."- MAGNET
"This Athens, Georgia collective have blossomed from winsome indie-pop virgins to frocked-up future pop stars, beaming their febrile college rock through a kaleidoscope of sleazy funk, electronica jitters, and 'Fear Of Music'-style Talking Heads ethno-beat."- NME
"At best, Of Montreal posits its creator as the missing link between Hot Chip and Morrissey."- UNCUT
With Special Guests:
PULL TIGER TAIL & EUGENE MCGUINESS (BOTH HEADLINERS IN THEIR OWN RIGHT)
YOU'LL REGRET IT IF YOU DON'T COME.
