Just as they’re winding down their current tour, Lemuria are excited to announce the fall leg of their Recreational Hate album tour, with support from Bethlehem Steel. All tour dates are listed below.
The tour announcement follows the February 2018 release of their latest album Recreational Hate, and the July 2018 release of their Companion LP, meant to illuminate Recreational Hate. The indie rock trio is currently on tour in support of the releases with openers Katie Ellen and Dusk. Tickets for all upcoming tour dates are on sale now.
The indie rock trio have been together for nearly fifteen years, guided by their fierce DIY ethics which have garnered them a devoted fanbase across the country. Originally formed in Buffalo, NY by singer/guitarist Sheena Ozzella and singer/drummer Alex Kerns, Lemuria have released a slew of albums, EPs and 7″s over the years to critical acclaim from NPR, Pitchfork, Stereogum, She Shreds, BrooklynVegan and many other places. Rounded out by bassist Max Gregor, as Lemuria have grown, life has spread the band across the country, with members in DC, Las Vegas and Austin – but they’ve never lost their connection to each other or to the music they make together.
Both Recreational Hate and the first 7 songs on Companion were recorded with Chris Shaw (Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Public Enemy, Weezer, Ice Cube), while the last 6 tracks on Companion are lo-fi demos meant to give insight to listeners into Lemuria’s writing process.
