(PR) Scratchie/New Line Records are excited to announce OFFICE's first national tour, in support of their label debut, A NIGHT AT THE RITZ, due out September 25th. The 19-date tour with Earlimart kicks off September 27th at Portland's Doug Fir Lounge and ends October 23rd at the Casbah in San Diego. In addition to these tour dates, OFFICE will make special visits this August to New York and Los Angeles, to preview songs off A NIGHT AT THE RITZ.
Though their album is still a few months away from its street date, OFFICE has already been building an early buzz for their insatiably catchy indie pop and attractive boy-girl harmonies.
The five-piece began the year as an URB Magazine "Next 100" band, with URB raving that, "Their confident blend of pop meets sweet sensibility partners up nicely in some seriously smart songs." NPR gave the band a "Song of the Day" feature, writing, "The white-collar world has rarely sounded so enticing." In early July, OFFICE caught the ears of Idolator.com, which praised their "ultra-hooky" music in a "Stuck on Repeat" spotlight, and this Fall, the band looks forward to such honors as a Paste Magazine "4 To Watch" feature and a SPIN "Breaking Out" feature.
