It’s the little things in life that bring Dave Longstreth, frontman for the Dirty Projectors, great joy. For every tour, Longstreth crosses his fingers in hopes that the band's tour manager will book a stop in Temecula, CA so he can play “Temecula Sunrise” in its namesake city. Unfortunately, the band's upcoming tour goes from San Diego to San Francisco without any stops in between. Of course, this is why we should all watch the fuck out, because it's when the little things go wrong that Dave gets fucking pissed.
Anyway: to hear “Temecula Sunrise” and other songs live from Dirty P’s new album, Bitte Orca (TMT Review), be sure to check out the tour when it hits your city. Unless you live in Temecula.
