“It’ll be sweet to finally play these shows in the actual towns again, rather than in my sad room.” – Keith Murray, We Are Scientists

“Keith Murray and Chris Cain are full-steam-ahead when it comes to being themselves lyrically and sonically. Their ability to transpose emotions for melody is memorable and second-to-none alongside how they mix raw garage rock recordings with glitzy electro pop stylings. Originality is key, and, as noted,
personality is forever on tap.” – The Aquarian Weekly

“You might not be able to rely on much of anything these days (such as the NYC MTA…), but thankfully there are ‘reliable’ artists who you know will always deliver live – like We Are Scientists.” – QRO

JULY 28, 2023 (New York, NY) – When Brooklyn-based dance rock band WE ARE SCIENTISTS released their 2021 album HUFFY, their fans didn’t realize how lucky they were, for waiting in the wings to be released barely fifteen months later was eighth album LOBES. Born in January 2023, LOBES was not so much a follow-up to Huffy as it was its companion – a darker and broodier friend… who liked to dance. Fans couldn’t wait for their chance to dance along. But as they saw the band playing seemingly endless shows elsewhere as the SHOW LOBES tour rolled out across the UK and Europe, fans in the US were made to wait. But their patience is being rewarded at last.

“Finally — FINALLY — we get to tour the United States again,” exclaims guitarist/vocalist Keith Murray. “It’s been too long, and we’ve been aching for it.”

Having been prevented from touring the States in a sizable and thorough fashion due to the pandemic, We Are Scientists (Keith, bassist Chris Cain with drummer Keith Carne) are embarking on a journey through North America, kicking off above the U.S. border in Toronto on Nov. 6^th and then crossing back into the States for a five+ week tour that sees them hitting cities including Chicago, Seattle, West Hollywood, Dallas, Nashville and their home turf for a grand homecoming show at NYC’s Bowery Ballroom on Dec. 15^th. (tour dates below)

“I’ve gotten so excited for the tour, I’ve been decorating my bedroom as various cities on this upcoming run and pretending to play full shows in, say, Kansas City, in anticipation of the real thing,” continues Keith. “My wife chided me the other day because I insisted on erecting a scale-model papier-mâché Coit Tower, to lend some veracity to my imaginary bedroom San Francisco show. Anyway, it’ll be sweet to finally play these shows in the actual towns, again, rather than in my sad room,”

Supporting their two aforementioned albums Huffy and Lobes, which We Are Scientists see as their Daytime and Nighttime records respectively, they’ll be hitting the road playing selections off of these records as well as their other six albums.

Huffy and Lobes are now available via Masterswan Records. Tickets available here: https://linktr.ee/wearescientists
