With the release of their much-anticipated new album, There’s a Riot Going On, heading our way on March 16th, Yo La Tengo have shared another taste of what’s to come with new single “For You Too“.
It’s an album stand-out track with a hypnotic guitar line, complemented by a low dose of drone and a deceptively upbeat drum patter, as Ira Kaplan sings quiet words of assurance: “For you / whenever there’s hurt / and things are uncertain / Maybe I could be that guy / I’d like to try.”
Yo La Tengo will commence their world tour at the end of March, arriving in the UK for a series of dates in late April, and performing at London’s Royal Festival Hall on May 4th. The full list of tour dates can be found below Luc Santé’s bio.
