It's been a while since we've heard anything from Foxygen. The California band surprised everyone when they announced that last year's tour supporting '.
..And Star Power' would be a "
farewell tour." There had long been
gossip about some tension between core band members Jonathan Rado and Sam France, and with
Rado and drummer Shaun Fleming (
Diane Coffee) each working on their own solo projects, it seemed like the breakup was really happening. They've been pretty quiet since then, releasing just one chaotic single '
24-Hour Lover Man' in the spring of 2015. Earlier today, they posted a teaser video on Twitter, which features new music and Sam France walking down a street and into a venue. There's not a lot to go on just yet, but maybe we can expect a new album or even a tour sometime in the future. The band will play at
Desert Daze in Joshua Tree this weekend (October 16th). There were no Canadian dates on their farewell tour but hopefully we can see them back in Toronto someday. Until then, you can check out the video below.
why is it that they would only visit Toronto? lol...Anthony, great teaser video and note!
