Khruangbin announces a series of five live albums
Featuring the likes of Nubya Garcia, Toro Y Moi, Men I Trust and more, the project will be rolled out concurrently through this year.
The ambitious year-long undertaking pays homage to the Khruangbin's live show.
The series of LPs will feature live performances from the band and guests including Kelly Doyle, Ruben Moreno, The Suffers and Robert Ellis at Stubb's in Austin, Nubya Garcia at Radio City Music Hall in NYC, Men I Trust at RBC Echo Beach in Toronto, and Toro Y Moi at The Fillmore in Miami.
“We toured the world for over 18 months, when global restrictions just started to slowly lift through the long anticipated end of regulations,” says Khruangbin. “From our vantage point, to watch people come together through song and dance after a time of unified isolation was truly a spiritual experience. To watch and hear audiences sing along to the songs we released during the pandemic and to feel so loved and well received was unquantifiable. We wanted to find a way to hallmark this journey and decided to do so through a series of live releases that also commemorate the artists who performed with us, as well as the artwork and photography from those shows. It was and is truly a time to remember.”
The first in the series will be Khruangbin & Friends - Live at Stubb's.
