Stars release free EP You Guys Are All Awesome
Download the EP Here
In celebration of their upcoming North American tour, Stars are releasing a free EP, You Guys Are All Awesome. The EP features two tracks from Stars, including their current single “Hold On When You Get Love And Let Go When You Give It”, as well as an exclusive song from each of the opening acts Milo Greene, Cold Specks, Yukon Blonde, and Said the Whale. The EP is available for free download on http://noisetrade.com/stars. The upcoming tour includes appearances at Coachella on April 12 and 19.
Stars are Canada’s best-kept secret indie institution. Over the course of more than a decade together, the band has consistently proven themselves adept at producing incisively sharp, beautifully orchestrated pop music. Their sixth album, The North (ATO Records), is their finest record to date – a culmination of all they have learned and lost; a record of what it is to love today, of how to live a life in music. The North marks the band’s highest Billboard chart debut in career.
Praise for The North
“(The North) rewards exploration with moments that alternately swoon, seethe, swing and paralyze.” – NPR
“what’s remarkable about The North is how unforced it sounds while conjuring the ghosts of past glories” – Pitchfork
“The band has grown. The music has evolved. But the message of feeling alive despite all odds is more apparent than ever.” –Paste
“a masterpiece” – Seattle Times
