With their recent stellar performance at SXSW behind them, Australian duo An Horse are wasting no time in conjuring up interest in their latest single “Dressed Sharply”. The first single off their highly anticipated new album, Walls, premiered on MTV2 last week. You can catch it on the MTV.com Buzzworthy site here. Walls will hit stores on April 26th via Mom+Pop Music and to celebrate its release, An Horse will kick off its tour at New York City’s Knitting Factory and then heading south sharing dates with Alkaline Trio and Manchester Orchestra.
And in other news, the Danish trio Figurines will be releasing their self-titled third album via The Control Group on April 12th. The band launched its video for “Hanging From Above” on MTV.com Hive. MTV also featured the band’s track “Free Today” on a recent episode of “Skins”. In support of their new album, Figurines are hitting the road in the northeastern U.S. for the first time in nearly four years.
Check out An Horse and Figurines on their latest tour.
