My fellow Americans, take heed. Canada, our neighbor to the north, has released one of her greatest weapons upon us. No, it’s not the mounties. Nor is it Alanis Morissette, the shrill-voiced, ex-lover of Full House actor Dave Coulier. It is something far quieter, yet far more powerful. I am speaking, of course, about the lush indie pop group that is Montreal-based band Stars.
After a series of dates in Canada, the group ventures south to show off their new album The Five Ghosts, set for a June 22 release (TMT News). This tour sees the band playing the album in its entirety, and then also taking requests from fans online. Attendees at the May shows will be able to purchase a pre-release of the album, as well as all kinds of extra pre-release delights.
