Beginning in May, Pure Bathing Culture will embark upon support tours for Lucius and American Football before headlining a run down the West Coast. The full list of dates is below, including two nights in New York City at Warsaw.
Today's release follows "Devotion," a danceable canticle in praise of partnership, and "Ad Victoriam," a thumping testament to the power of persistence. Since announcement, Night Pass has received enthused editorial attention from Stereogum, The FADER, Gorilla Vs. Bear, Brooklyn Vegan, and Paste among others as well as heavy rotation from radio tastemakers WFUV, KCRW, KEXP, SiriusXMU and more. The album is Pure Bathing Culture's third studio release and the most masterful demonstration to date of their distinct sonic style, once compared by Richard Swift to "a medieval Fleetwood Mac." Night Pass is produced by Tucker Martine (REM, My Morning Jacket, Neko Case, Spoon) and preceded by hard-earned reputation, which Tennis' Alaina Moore perfectly articulates: "As a fan, I can't even feign objectivity ... they have made a cult following out of the biggest names in indie."
