One of Only Four Tour Stops
Sylvan Esso has announced a unique, new tour called “WITH” slated for November 2019. Through six shows in four select cities, the group will present their music like never before; collaborating with 8 of their favorite musicians in a live ensemble to create an experience that is wholly exceptional. The shows will take place in iconic venues across the country, ending in their hometown at DPAC on Friday November 22 & Saturday November 23, 2019. Molly Sarlé (of Mountain Man) is set to be the special guest at both DPAC performances.
The duo’s 2017 album, What Now, showcased the band continuing to evolve sonically and lyrically, and positioned themselves at the helm of pioneering pop. Receiving overall critical acclaim, NPR said “What Now is about surrendering your inhibitions in order to make room for forces bigger than yourself: sound that inspires movement, vulnerability that inspires reflection, love that inspires awe,” and The New York Times proclaimed “Sylvan Esso keeps pop human.” The album was nominated for Best Dance/Electronic album at the 2018 GRAMMY’s.
