FloriDada And Everywhere: Animal Collective announce 2016 tour, reveal two New England dates

Baltimore-based experimental pop group Animal Collective are truly a varied creation, tracing their members’ roots back to Portugal, DC, Brooklyn, and Owings Mills, Maryland. Now, with new LP Painting With set for February release via Domino, the gents are hitting the road to nearly all those far corners during a 2016 North American and European tour that comes to 3S Artspace in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, on February 20 and Royale in Boston two days later.

The jaunt kicks off in Philly on February 19, the date of Painting With’s release. For the New England dates (and first leg that extends to March 8 in Los Angeles), tour support will be handled by New York hip-hop trio Ratking.

Check out the video for Painting With album cut “FloriDada” after the full run of shows.
