Legendary electronic duo Thievery Corporation has just announced details for a massive 32-date tour of North America this winter and fall. The tour will feature support from Julian Marley and The Suffers, with a special co-headlining date with Michael Franti & Spearhead in Philadelphia also featured as part of the tour. The tour will conclude with a special two-night blow out at the Masonic in San Francisco, with the final date falling on New Year’s Eve. The trek dubbed the “Treasures from the Temple” is in reference to their recently-released compilation album of the same name, which serves as companion to last year’s excellent The Temple of I&I album.
Throughout the year, Thievery Corporation has been releasing stellar music videos and singles for the new tracks off of Treasures from the Temple, building up the hype machine for another showstopping tour that will undoubtedly be one of the best tours of any electronic band this year.
Since teaming up way back in 1995, Rob Garza and Eric Hilton have become one of the hottest electronic groups of all time, building up a devoted fanbase and developing an eclectic sound that draws from Brazilian bossa nova music as well as traditional jazz to create a unique and captivating sound.
