Toro y Moi mastermind Chaz Bundick has ditched his day job in order to focus more fully on his long-running side-project Les Sins. Under that moniker, he'll release the Michael LP later this year. But first, he's taking the project on tour.
The run of shows sees Les Sins spreading the love throughout America, with a handful of Canadian dates as well. These include shows at Vancouver's Fortune Sound Club, Toronto's Coda and Montreal's Le Belmont. Check out the full itinerary below.
In addition, Bundick has shared a new music video for "Bother," the excellent first single from Michael. The clip was directed by the duo HARRYS (Harry Israelson and Harry Schleiff), who offer up some grainy, colourful shots of one of those wobbly car dealership balloon guys, though this one has LES SINS scrawled across its body.
Watch the video for "Bother" below. Michael is set to arrive on November 4 via Company Records, a new imprint of Carpark.
