Owen Pallett will release Lewis Takes Off His Shirt as the first single from his recent album, Heartland, on March 29^th.

Lewis Takes Off His Shirt, features Owen’s trademark looped violin and vocals augmented by the Czech Symphonic Orchestra and comes very close to Pallett’s stated aim of ‘putting so many notes on the page that the paper turned black’, with its layers of electronica, strings and flute which build to an ecstatic crescendo

Simon Bookish has remixed album track  Keep The Dog Quiet which is available as a free download here.

Following his recent show at the Union Chapel in London, Owen Pallett will return to the UK and Ireland for a handful of dates in March with support on all shows except for Dublin coming from Next Life.

MAR 18 DUBLIN – WHELAN’S
