Following the release of their new album ‘Strike Gently’ (thru the label formed by Julian Casablancas, Cult Records), The Virgins will be performing at London’s The Old Blue Last on June 20. The band have also been confirmed as support on the forthcoming The Killers tour in the US.
Watch the video to recent single ‘Prima Materia’ here:
Recorded in New York at the East Village Recording Centre (underneath the site of the storied former rock club ‘Brownies’), the long-awaited second album from the New York band was produced by The Unicorn Parade (Johnny T. Yerington and Gus Oberg).
Casablancas notes, “When I first saw the Virgins I was psyched there was such a rad new band from NYC. Donald’s such an awesome guy and it’s great to meet someone who’s such a true artist. I think they’ve made a classic record and we’re really excited they chose to work with us.”
