Hinds In-Store Performance (January 5, 2016)
We're very excited to kick into 2016 with an in-store performance from Hinds on Tuesday, January 5! Originally called Deers, this Madrid-based group's ascent over the past few years has been at a quick and steady pace, releasing well received-singles and compilation appearances, and touring the world over including festival performances at Festival Internacional de Benicàssim, SXSW and Burgerama. Their scrappy, lo-fi garage-pop anthems are irresistible and you'll be able to score a copy of their upcoming debut full-length, Leave Me Alone (out 1/8/16), a few days early at the in-store. In the meantime, check out this great video for album-single "Garden," and see you on January 5th! -
