The Vacant Lots announce the release of their new single ‘Paint This City’ on September 22 thru Sonic Cathedral.
Taken from Vermont-based duo’s acclaimed debut album ‘Departure’, it is sung by keyboardist/percussionist Brian MacFadyen and was inspired by his time living in Montreal. According to the band it actually started out as a misinterpretation of the chords to Galaxie 500’s classic ‘Tugboat’, but has ended up somewhere in between Mink DeVille’s ‘Spanish Stroll’ and New Order circa ‘Power, Corruption & Lies’. It comes backed with ‘Departure’, another late-night city song which adds Lou Reed-style street smarts to a punked up 13th Floor Elevators garage snarl.
Following their UK support tour with The Brian Jonestown Massacre earlier this year, The Vacant Lots return in late September for the following dates:
September
24. London, Shacklewell Arms
25. Rugby, Grand Central Studios
26. Liverpool International Festival Of Psychedelia
28. Southend, The Railway Hotel
29Bristol, Start The Bus
