Not too long ago we connected with Gruff Rhys and word of his forthcoming album, Babelsberg, which hits June 8 via Rough Trade. Now, the Super Furry Animals frontman is connecting with us, revealing dates for a North American tour that comes to Great Scott in Allston on October 8. To celebrate, Rhys has issued another track off the new LP, and it’s called “Limited Edition Heart.” Rhys says of the song: “I wrote ‘Limited Edition Heart’ whilst walking along a polluted yet beautiful river. It has beautiful orchestral arrangements thanks to Stephen McNeff and the BBC NOW orchestra.” Listen to it below, and scan all Rhys’ North American dates after the video jump.
