The New Pornographers will take it to the Vogue Theater in December. The veteran indie rockers will play their hometown for two dates on the 11th and 12th of December alongside special guest Aoife Nessa Frances. The dates in Vancouver will close out a short tour that starts at the end of the month.  The Bands hasn’t released an album since  “In the Morse Code of Brake Lights” in 2019 and this tour will be in celebration of two of the band’s earlier albums: 2000s “Mass Romantic” and 2005s “Twin Cinema”. Each stop along the tour will consist of two concerts: one dedicated to the anniversary of each album. The 11th of December is dedicated to the anniversary of “Mass Romantic” and the 12th to “Twin Cinema”.

The New Pornographers were founded in 1997 in Vancouver and have since released eight studio albums. The band exploded from the gate, as with their debut effort “Mass Romantic”. Despite failing to chart, the album received critical acclaim and remains a classic amongst indie enthusiasts. This tour will see founding-member Dan Bejar coincide with the departure of Blaine Thurier: the band’s original keyboardist and synthesizer specialist. The band is probably best known for its unique sound where they use a variety of vocalists and underground power-pop elements. Expect these hometown veterans to deliver.
