New York quartet Asobi Seksu is gearing up for a very busy Fall, which will keep them out on the road for the majority of September and October. The band, still riding high off of the critical success of its second album, Citrus, is eager to bring its live show to new audiences, as this will be the most extensive tour the band has undertaken thus far. Fans can expect songs from both albums in the set list, as well as a few new songs. If you can’t wait until September, the band will be playing a one-off show at Brooklyn’s trendiest venue for summer concerts, the McCarren Park Pool, with Enon and Of Montreal this Sunday. The band is also preparing to unleash the first video from Citrus, for the song “Thursday,” directed by So Yong Kim & Bradley Rust Gray.
