AM will soon team up with indie songstress Diane Birch, beginning May 12, for more touring. AM and band will then hit the road with acclaimed cohort Josh Rouse in mid May and then rejoin Birch in June for a second leg. Following these U.S. shows, AM will reunite with AIR in their home country of France, beginning June 10.
AM's new album, Future Sons & Daughters (Filter U.S. Recordings), produced by Charles Newman (Magnetic Fields' 69 Love Songs, Realism), is a collage of musical styles that recalls everything from Brazilian tropicalia, British Invasion and '60s psychedelia, and is garnering rave reviews and musical comparisons to artists such as Wilco and Beck. Just last week, AM helped kick off the legendary Greek Theatre's concert season alongside his idol, Brazilian musical legend Caetano Veloso, with a memorable hometown performance.
